  • Published:
Chemistry of Natural Compounds Aims and scope

A cucurbitane triterpenoid, 7β-butoxy-3β-hydroxy-25-methoxycucurbita-5,23(E)-dien-19-al (1), was isolated from the fruit pulp of Momordica charantia. Structure determination of the new compound was accomplished by spectroscopic analyses including 1D and 2D NMR (1H, 13C, COSY, HMQC, HMBC, and NOESY) and EI-MS and comparison with the data of known analogues.
