Abstract
Fourteen cucurbitane-type triterpene glycosides (1-14) were isolated from a methanol extract of Momordica charantia fruits, including three new compounds, charantosides A-C (1, 5, 6). Their structures were elucidated by chemical and spectroscopic methods. All isolated compounds were evaluated for alpha-glucosidase inhibitory effect. Of which, 12 and 13 showed moderate inhibitory activity against alpha-glucosidase. Whereas, 2, 3, 6-11, and 14 showed weak inhibitory activity, and 1, 4, and 5 were inactive.Entities:
