Turpesteryl Ester, a New Antibacterial Steroid from Ipomoea Turpethum

Turpesteryl ester ( 1 ), a new steroid, has been isolated from the ethyl acetate-soluble subfraction of the methanolic extract of Ipomoea turpethum (L.) R.Br., along with stigmasterol, β-sitostenone, rosmarinic acid, and methyl rosmarinate, reported for the first time from this species. Their struct...

More Information
Summary:Turpesteryl ester ( 1 ), a new steroid, has been isolated from the ethyl acetate-soluble subfraction of the methanolic extract of Ipomoea turpethum (L.) R.Br., along with stigmasterol, β-sitostenone, rosmarinic acid, and methyl rosmarinate, reported for the first time from this species. Their structures were elucidated with the help of spectroscopic techniques including 2D NMR. Compound 1 showed significant antibacterial activity against two Gram positive and three Gram negative bacterial strains.
