Omphalocarpoidone, a new lanostane-type furano-spiro-γ-lactone from the wood of Tridesmostemon omphalocarpoides Engl. (Sapotaceae)

2013

Abstract Phytochemical studies of the wood and the stem bark of Tridesmostemon omphalocarpoides Engl. (Sapotaceae) led to the isolation of omphalocarpoidone (1), a new lanostane-type furano-spiro-γ-lactone together with β-amyrin acetate (2), taraxerol (3), spinasterol (4), lichexanthone (5), epi-catechin (6), spinasterol 3-O-β- d -glucopyranoside (7), tormentic acid (8), and 1,2,3,4-tetrahydronorharman-1-one (9). Their structures were established on the basis of extensive NMR studies, mass spectrometry, and by comparison of the data with those previously reported in the literature. The structure of the new secondary metabolite was later confirmed by X-ray crystallography. Except for spinast…
