New cardenolide and acylated lignan glycosides from the aerial parts of Asclepias curassavica

Abstract

Three new cardenolide glycosides and six new acylated lignan glycosides were obtained along with nineteen known compounds from the aerial parts of Asclepias curassavica L. (Asclepiadaceae). The structure of each compound was determined based on interpretations of NMR and MS measurements and chemical evidence. © 2008 Pharmaceutical Society of Japan.
