TLDR
In this article, the CH2Cl2 extract of the aerial parts of Euphorbia heteradena yielded 24methylenecycloartanol, cycloart-25-en-3b,24-diol, cycle-art-22-and-end-3-b,25-dol, vomifoliol, 9-O-b-D-glucopyranoside, 3,4,3'-tri-Omethoxy ellagic acid, syringic acid, and scopoletin.
Abstract
Euphorbia heteradena Jaub. & Spach (Euphorbiaceae), a plant endemic to Turkey, has not been investigated previously. The CH2Cl2 extract of the aerial parts of Euphorbia heteradena yielded 24-methylenecycloartanol, cycloart-25-en-3b ,24-diol, cycloart-22-en-3b ,25-diol, vomifoliol, vomifoliol 9-O-b -D-glucopyranoside, 3,4,3'-tri-O-methoxy ellagic acid, syringic acid and scopoletin. The structures of the isolates were identified by high field spectroscopic methods including 1D and 2D NMR techniques.
