New Steroidal Alkaloids from Solanum Hypomalacophyllum

Abstract

Two new steroidal alkaloids (1-2) have been isolated from the leaves and roots of Solanum hypomalacophyllum Bitter, respectively. Their structures have been elucidated as deacetoxysolaphyllidine-3- O-β-D-glucopyranoside (1) and 4-keto-5,6-dihydro-(20 S)-verazine (2). Furthermore, two known steroidal alkaloids, 20 R-verazine and 20 S-verazine, and the common secondary metabolites oleanolic acid and β-sitosterol were isolated from the roots, whereas deacetoxysolaphyllidine was obtained from the leaves.
