RESUMO
A new natural product, a 3,9-(1,2,3-trioxocine)-type steroid, named rauianodoxy (6), was isolated from Rauia nodosa, together with five steroids: sistostenone (1), stigmastenone (2), sitosterol (3), stigmasterol (4) and ergosterol peroxide (5), one coumarin, O-geranylosthenol (7), and three alkaloids, N-methylflindersine (8), zantobungeanine (9) and veprissine (10). Compounds 5-8 were isolated for the first time in the genus Rauia. These compounds were characterized on the basis of their spectral data, mainly one and two-dimensional NMR, and mass spectra, also involving comparison with the literature data. Theoretical studies at the DFT level reveal structural parameters for the 1,2,3-trioxole bridge compatible with known structures containing a similar group.
