Chemical constituents of Jordanian propolis

Abstract

Seventeen compounds, including a new lanostane triterpenoid, 24(Z)-1β-3β-dihydroxyeupha-7,24-dien-26-oic acid, have been isolated from the methanolic extracts of two samples of Jordanian propolis collected from two different places with different dominant flora. The structures of the isolated compounds were elucidated by spectral methods including IR, UV, MS and 1- and 2-D NMR.
