Résumé
Abstract A new cycloartane triterpenoid named conocarpol ( 1 ) was isolated from the stem bark of Diospyros conocarpa , together with the known compounds aridanin ( 2 ), lupeol ( 3 ), betulin ( 4 ), betulinic acid ( 5 ), stigmasterol ( 6 ), and stigmasterol 3- O - β - d -glucopyranoside ( 7 ). Their structures were established on the basis of 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopy as well as mass spectrometry. Aridanin ( 2 ) is reported for the first time in the family Ebenaceae, and conocarpol ( 1 ) represents the first cycloartane triterpene within this family.
