Abstract
The EtOH extract of the leaves of Holarrhena curtisii yielded five new steroidal alkaloids: 17-epi-holacurtine (3), 17-epi-N-demethylholacurtine (4), holacurtinol (5), 3alpha-amino-14beta-hydroxypregnan-20-one (7), and 15alpha-hydroxyholamine (8), in addition to the known compounds, holacurtine (1), N-demethylholacurtine (2), and holamine (6). All eight compounds showed significant cytotoxic and leishmanicidal activities.Entities:
