Triterpenoids from Walsura trichostemon

Bioactivity guided separation of Walsura trichostemon stem methanolic extract led to the isolation of four new dammarane (1-4) and two new apotirucallane triterpenoids (5-6), together with one limonoid (7), 11,25-dideacetyltrichostemonate, 12β, 20S, 24R-trihydroxydammar-25-en-3-one and 12β, 20S, 25-trihydroxydammar-23-en-3-one.
