Chemistry of Natural Compounds Aims and scope

Abstract

The total sterols have been isolated fromHalocynthia aurantium by column chromatography on silica gel. The following steroid alcohols have been identified in it with the aid of GLC, GLC-MS, and1H NMR: 5α-cholestan-3β-ol, 24ξ-methylcholestan-3β-ol, 24ξ-ethylcholestan-3β-ol, 4ξ-methyl-24ξ-ethyl-5α-cholestan-3β-ol, cholest-5-en-3β-ol, 24ξ-methylcholest-5-en-3β-ol, 24ξ-ethylcholes-5-en-3β-ol, 5α-cholest-22-en-3β-ol, 24-nor-5α-cholest-22-en-3β-ol, cholesta-5,22-dien-3β-ol, 24ξ-methylcholesta-5,22-dien-3β-ol, 24-norcholesta-5,22-dien-3β-ol, 24-ethylcholesta-5,24(28)-dien-3β-ol, and 24-methylcholesta-5,24(28)-dien-3β-ol.
