Abstract
Phytochemical investigations of Terminalia arjuna bark and Terminalia chebula fruits resulted in the isolation of twelve triterpenoids including two new oleanane type triterpene glucosyl esters, ajunglucosides IV (1) and V (2), from the n-BuOH layer of the MeOH extract of T. arjuna bark as well as nine oleanane-type triterpenoids from the MeOH extract of the fruits of T. chebula.
Key words
Terminalia arjuna - Terminalia chebula - Combretaceae - oleanane triterpenoid - triterpene glucosyl ester - ajunglucosides III–V
