Abstract

A total of four compounds were isolated from the n-hexane soluble fraction of a methanolic extract of the whole plant of Bryophyllum daigremontianum. The structures of the isolated compounds were elucidated as 11-oxo-epi-β-amyrin (1), 21-dehydrodesmosterol (2), 3,4-dihydroxy-cis-cinnamic acid (3), and p-hydroxy-benzaldehyde (4) by high field NMR analyses as well as by comparison with structurally related compounds.

Key words: Bryophyllum daigremontianum, Crassulaceae, 11-oxo-epi-β-amyrin, 21-dehydrodesmosterol, 3,4-dihydroxy-cis-cinnamic acid, p-hydroxybenzaldehyde.
