Abstract
A new lanostane aldehyde, charantal (1), was isolated from the ethanolic leaf extract of Momordica charantia together with the known compound, 2,4-bis(2-phenylpropan-2-yl)phenol (2). The structure of compound 1 was elucidated by extensive 1D and 2D NMR and MS experiments. Compound 2 displayed a moderately strong antitubercular activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv (MIC=14μg/mL) according to the MABA susceptibility assay.
