Abstract

Further phytochemical analysis aimed at the steroidal glycoside constituents of the leaves of Cestrum nocturnum has resulted in the isolation of eight new steroidal glycosides (1-8), which were classified into a spirostanol saponin (1), a furostanol saponin (2), a pseudo-furostanol saponin (3), two pregnane glycosides (4, 5), two cholestane glycosides (6, 7), and pregnane-carboxylic acid gamma-lactone glycoside (8), and of two known spirostanol glycosides (9, 10). The structures of the new compounds were elucidated on the basis of chemical and spectroscopic evidence.
