Three new pentacyclic triterpenes, identified as olean-11-one-13(18)-ene 1,
urs-3-one 2 and 30-desmethyl-urs-3-on-20-ol 4 and one unknown alicyclic gl
ycoside, 10-nonylcyclohex-12-ene-11-glucoside 7 have been isolated from the
root bark of Mangifera indica cultivar Desi in addition to the known compo
unds beta-sitosterol glycoside, mangiferin and isomangiferin. The structure
s of these phytoconstituents have been established on the basis of spectral
data and chemical transformation.
