Triterpenoids from Aglaia odorata var. microphyllina

Abstract

Five new apotirucallane-type triterpenoids (1–5), named agladorals A–E, and 28 known compounds (20 triterpenoids and 8 rocaglamides) were isolated from the twigs of Aglaia odorata var. microphyllina. Their structures were elucidated by spectroscopic analysis.

Keywords:
