PHYTOCHEMICAL INVESTIGATION OF THESIUM HUMILE VAHL

Summary

The aerial parts of the flowering Thesium humile Vahl were investigated. B–sitosterol and tricosanol–12 were isolated from the light petroleum extract, while the possible presence of stigmasterol was detected by T.L.C. characterized but unidentified crystalline flavonol glycoside was isolated from the chloroformic extract of the defatted material. d–Mannitol and two crystalline partly characterized alkaloids (phenolic and non–phenolic) were isolated from the alcoholic extract of the defatted material.

Zusammenfassung

Aus den oberirdischen Teilen von Thesium humile wurden β–Sitosterol und Tricosanol–12 isoliert.

Der Chloroform–Extrakt von entfettetem Untersuchungsmaterial enthielt ein nicht identifiziertes kristallines Flavonol–Glykosid, während im alkoholischen Extrakt d–Mannitol und zwei kristalline nicht identifizierte Alkaloide gefunden wurden.
