Androstane alkaloids from musk of Moschus moschiferus

Chem Pharm Bull (Tokyo). 2002 May;50(5):663-4. doi: 10.1248/cpb.50.663.

Abstract

Two androstane alkaloids were isolated from the musk of Moschus moschiferus. The structures were elucidated to be 3alpha-ureido-androst-4-en-17-one (1) and 3alpha-ureido-androst-4-en-17beta-ol (2) by two-dimensional NMR analysis (HMQC, 1H-1H COSY, HMBC, and NOESY).
