A pregnane glycoside from the roots of Mandevilla pentlandiana

A pregnane triglycoside containing a new genin 3β,14β-dihydroxy-21-methoxy-5β-pregnan-20-one has been isolated from the dried roots of Mandevilla pentlandiana. Chemical and spectroscopic evidence for the glycoside are consistent with the structure 3β,14β-dihydroxy-21-methoxy-5β-pregnan-20-one-3-O- β...

Sumario:A pregnane triglycoside containing a new genin 3β,14β-dihydroxy-21-methoxy-5β-pregnan-20-one has been isolated from the dried roots of Mandevilla pentlandiana. Chemical and spectroscopic evidence for the glycoside are consistent with the structure 3β,14β-dihydroxy-21-methoxy-5β-pregnan-20-one-3-O- β-d-diginopyranosyl-(1→4)- O-β-d-cymaropyranosyl-(1→4)-O-β-d-cymaropyranoside. It is noteworthy that 3β,14β, 21-trihydroxy 5β-pregnan-20-one, biosynthetically related to the genin of this glycoside, has been proved to be a precursor of cardenolides, also produced by this plant. © 1993.
