Abstract

From the seeds of Asclepias curassavica, two cardenolides and twelve glycosides were obtained. Among these, four compounds were determined to be 16α-hydroxycalotropagenin, 16α-hydroxycalotropin and its 3'-O-glucoside and 3'-O-gentiobioside. Normally linked triosides of corotoxigenin, coroglaucigenin and 12β-hydroxycoroglaucigenin were characterized as cellobiosyl-allomethylosides.
