CANO, Arturo; BUCIO, José Luis; ESPINOZA, Marina  and  RUIZ-CANCINO, Alejandro. Sesqui- and Tri- Terpenoids from Esenbeckia species (Rutaceae). Rev. Soc. Quím. Méx [online]. 2000, vol.44, n.2, pp.155-157. ISSN 0583-7693.

Three Esenbeckia species (Rutaceae) were chemically analyzed by means of conventional chromatographic, spectroscopic and spectrometric techniques. From the aerial parts of E. berlandieri ssp berlandieri were obtained friedelin, β-sitosterol, and β-sitosteryl-β-D-glucoside. Limonin was characterized as the main constituent from the seeds of Esenbeckia ovata. From the aerial parts of E. velutinosa friedelin, caryophyllene β-oxide, lupeol, lupenone, cryptomeridiol and β-sitosterol were isolated and characterized.

Keywords : Esenbeckia berlandieri ssp. berlandieri; E. ovata; E. velutinosa; Rutaceae; sesquiterpenes; triterpenes; limonin.
