Abstract

Isomultiflorenol was the major component accompanied by its Δ⁷-isomer, multiflorenol, in the triterpene alcohol fractions of the unsaponifiable matter of Cucumis sativus and C. melo seed lipids. The other triterpene alcohols identified in the seeds were α- and β-amyrins, taraxerol, lupeol, cycloartenol, 24 methylenecycloartanol, 24-methyl-25(27)-dehydrocycloartanol, 24-methylene-24-dihydrolanosterol, 24-methylene-24-dihydroparkeol, euphol and tirucallol.
