Abstract

The leaves of Jatropha cur cas L. were phytochemically investigated. Stigmasterol and β-sitosterol were isolated from the light petroleum extract. A new dimer of a triterpene alcohol C ₆₃ H ₁₁₇ O ₉ was isolated from the ether extract. Two new flavonoidal glycosides were isolated from the alcoholic extract, their structures were elucidated.
