Abstract

Objective: To study the chemical constituents of Gymnotheca involucrata.

Method: Separating the constituents by means of chromatography and identifying their structures on the basis of NMR spectra and TLC with authentic samples.

Result: From the methanolic extract of the whole plant of G. involucrata, three compounds were isolated and identified as kaempferol-4',7-dimethyl-3-O-glucoside, daucosterol and stigmasterol.

Conclusion: All the three compounds were isolated from this genus for the first time.
