Abstract:
From the leaves of Cryptostegia grandiflora, four new cardiac glycosides oleandrigenin 3-O-beta-glucopyranosyl-(1-->4)-beta-cymaropyranosyl-(1-->4)-beta-digitoxopyranoside, cryptostigmin I, oleandrigenin 3-O-beta-glucopyranosyl-(1-->4)-alpha-rhamnopyranoside, cryptostigmin II, 16-propionylgitoxigenin 3-O-beta-glucopyranosyl-(1-->4)-alpha-rhamnopyranoside, cryptostigmin III and oleandrigenin 3-O-beta-glucopyranosyl-(1-->6)-beta-glucopyranosyl-(1-->4)-beta-cymaropyranosyl-(1-->4)-beta-digitoxopyranoside, cryptostigmin IV have been isolated together with two known cardenolides subalpinosid and 16-O-acetyl-digitalinum verum. The structures of the isolated compounds were verified by means of MS and NMR spectral analyses.
