title: Two new fatty esters from Rhazya stricta roots (Apocynanaceae).
abstract: Investigation of roots of Rhazya stricta (Apocynanaceae) of Pakistan origin lead to isolation of two new fatty esters 9-octadecenoic acid-2',3'-dihydroxy propyl ester (1) and hexadecanoic acid-2',3'-dihydroxy propyl ester (2). Linked scan MS measurements were used to propose a mass fragmentation pattern for the fatty ester 9-octadecenoic acid-2',3'-dihydroxy propyl ester.
