Abstract: | A naturally occurring derivatives of pyridine, 3,5-pyridinedicarboxamide ( 1 ), lupeol ( 2 ), a steroidal mixture stigmasterol ( 3a ) and β-sitosterol ( 3b )], steroidal glycosides stigmasteryl-glucoside ( 4a ) and β-sitosteryl glucoside ( 4b )] and allantoin ( 5 ) were isolated and characterized from the aerial parts of Peritrophe japonica. Their structures were determined by spectral analysis. |
