Triterpenoids from Lawsonia alba.
Two pentacyclic triterpenoids have been isolated from the aerial parts of Lawsonia alba. The structures of the new constituents, named as lawsonic acid and lawsonin have been elucidated as 3 alpha-E-ferulyloxy-lup-20(29)-en-28-oic acid and 3 alpha-E-ferulyloxy-urs-11-en-13 beta-ol respectively through spectroscopic studies.
