Abstract

The stem bark of Anthocleista grandiflora (Gentianaceae) has yielded five triterpenoids, baruol, 3-deacetylmongolenin, anthocleistone, 6-ketoanthocleistone and lupenone together with scopoletin and (+)-de- O-methyllasiodiplodin. 3-Deacetyl-mongolenin was isolated from the leaves while the root bark yielded, in addition to the above compounds, the secoiridoid, sweroside.
