Abstract | ||||
From the leaves of Cryptostegia grandiflora, two phenolic glucosides 2,4,6- trihydroxybenzophenone 2-O- -glucopyranoside and Acanthoside B together with a megastigmane (Icariside B1) and (Z)-3-hexenyl -D-glucopyranoside have been isolated. Moreover the cardiotonic activities of Cryptostegia extract and Cryptostigmin II, the major cardenolide previously isolated from the same plant leaves were also investigated. The latter showed similar effects to those of Digoxin | ||||
