Abstract

Retrospinoside (1) is a new polyoxy pregnane glycoside which was isolated and characterised from the aerial parts of Caralluma retrospiciens (Ehrenb.) N. E. Br., family Apocynaceae. The structure was established as 3-O-[β-D-glucopyranosyl-(1 → 4)-β-D-(3-O-methyl-6-desoxygalactopyranosy)]-14,15,20-trihydroxy-4β-pregnane. Its structural elucidation was performed through extensive spectroscopic measurements including 1D- and 2D-NMR, and HRMS, in addition to chemical methods.

Keywords: Caralluma retrospiciens; plant natural products; polyoxy pregnanes; pregnane glycosides.
