Abstract:
AIM: To look for new hypoglycemic and anti-inflammatory agents from
Aloe vera L. METHODS: Various column chromatographic techniques were employed for the isolation and purification of the ingredients from
Aloe vera L. The structures were elucidated on the basis of spectral evidences and chemical analysis. RESULTS: Eleven compounds were obtained and identified as aloeresin G(1), isoaloeresin D(2), aloe-emodin(3), babarloin A(4), 8-
O-methyl-7-hydroxyaloin B(5), elgonica-dimer A(6), elgonica-dimer B(7), feralolide(8), hopan-3-ol(9), β-sitosterol(10) and daucosterol(11). CONCLUSION: Aloeresin G is a new compound.
