Abstract
Two new steroidal glycosides (1 and 2) have been isolated from the ethanolic extract of the stem bark of Mimusops elengi L. and characterized as stigmasta-5,22-dien-3 beta-ol-3 beta-D-glucuropyranosyl-(6'beta -> 1 '')-D-glucopyranoside (1) and beta-sitosterol-3 beta-(3''',6''',7'''-trihydroxynaphthyl-2'''-carboxyl)-4 ''-glucopyranosyl(1 ''-> 4')-glucopyranoside (2) along with the known compounds stigmasta-5-en-3 beta-ol, lup-20(29)-en-3 beta-ol, and stigmasta-5-en-3 beta-D-glucopyranoside. Their structures have been elucidated on the basis of spectral data analysis and chemical reactions.
