Abstract

The stems of Khaya senegalensis yielded three limonoids which appear to be novel. These compounds were identified on the basis of spectroscopic analysis as methyl 1α,6,8α,14β,30β-pentahydroxy-3-oxo- [3.3.1¹⁰,².1¹,⁴]-tricyclomeliac-7-oate; methyl 1α,2β,3α,6,8α,14β-hexahydroxy-[4.2.1¹⁰,³⁰.1¹,⁴]-tricyclomeliac-7 oate and methyl α-acetoxy-2β,3α,6,8α,14β-pentahydroxy-[4.2.¹⁰,³⁰.¹¹,⁴]-tricyclomeliac-7-oate. The two latter ones represent a novel group of methyl tricyclomeliac-7-oates. Scopoletin, scoparon, sitosterol, stigmasterol, Campesterol and 3β-O-β-D-glucopyranosylsitosterol were also isolated.
