The methanolic extract of the aerial parts of Lippia nodiflora Linn. afforded one new and two known steroids. The structure of the new steroid had been elucidated as 4',5'-dimethoxybenzoloxystigmasterol (1) by an analysis of the spectral data, including extensive NMR experiments and its chemical transformation to stigmasterol. The known steroids were identified as stigmasterol and beta-sitosterol through comparison of their spectral data with those reported in the literature.

D013256 Steroids A group of polycyclic compounds closely related biochemically to TERPENES. They include cholesterol, numerous hormones, precursors of certain vitamins, bile acids, alcohols (STEROLS), and certain natural drugs and poisons. Steroids have a common nucleus, a fused, reduced 17-carbon atom ring system, cyclopentanoperhydrophenanthrene. Most steroids also have two methyl groups and an aliphatic side-chain attached to the nucleus. (From Hawley's Condensed Chemical Dictionary, 11th ed) Steroid,Catatoxic Steroids,Steroids, Catatoxic
