Abstract
A new steroid (acylated C21 pregnane steroid) was isolated from chloroform extract in phytochemical screening of Caralluma lasiantha. The isolated compound is found to be 3β-hydroxy-14β–(6′- carboxyphenyl)propionyloxypregn–5-en-20-one based on spectroscopic studies (IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, DEPT, COSY, HSQC, HMBC and ESI-MS). The isolated new steroid was tested against four bacterial strains and the activity was related to the structure of the molecule.
