Abstract
Background
The purpose of present investigation to isolate b-sitosterol diglucosyl caprate from the rhizomes of Alpinia galanga.
Methods
The methanolic extract of the rhizomes of plant Alpinia galanga was subjected to column chromatography and was eluted with ethyl acetate-methanol (99:1) to yield compound (AG5) b-sitosterol diglucosyl caprate. Various spectral techniques such as Ultraviolet (UV), Infrared (IR), Hydrogen Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (1HNMR), Carbon Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (13CNMR), and MASS spectrometry (MS), were employed to determine and elucidate.
Results
Chemical and spectral investigation of extract furnished a new steroidal glycoside.
Conclusion
The isolated compound b-sitosterol diglucosyl caprate could serve as a lead compound in synthesis of steroids.
