Abstract

Pentacyclic Triterpenes (1) and (2) have been isolated from Mimusops elengi and assigned structures 3beta,6beta,19alpha,23-tetrahydroxy-urs-12-ene and 1beta-hydroxy-3beta-hexanoyllup-20 (29)-ene-23, 28-dioic acid, respectively, on the basis of spectroscopic studies including 2D-NMR. The compound 1 showed moderate inhibiting activity against beta-glucuronidase enzyme
