Abstract
This work describes the identification of some of the minor chemical constituents of espinheira santa (Maytenus ilicifolia and Maytenus aquifolium, Celastraceae), a medicinal plant widely utilized in Brazil. By using high resolution gas chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry (HRGC-MS), it was possible to identify mainly triterpenoids and steroids in espinheira santa, most of them reported for the first time in both Maytenus species.
