title: Alysinol--a new triterpene from Alysicarpus monolifer.
abstract: A new triterpene named as alysinol 3alpha, 22beta-dihydroxyolean-12-ene [structure: see text] along with known compounds usnic acid, methyl 2,4-dihydroxy-3,6-dimethyl benzoate, 3-hydroxy benzoic acid, stigmasterol, poriferasterol and ursolic acid have been isolated from Alysicarpus monolifer. The structure of [structure: see text] has been established through spectroscopic techniques.
