title: Isolation of a deoxy lupane triterpene carboxylic acid from Finlaysonia obovata (a mangrove plant).
abstract: A deoxy lupane triterpene carboxylic acid, lup-20(29)-en-24-oic acid (1), was isolated from the active chloroform extract of Finlaysonia obovata, a latex exuding mangrove plant. Its structure was evaluated on the basis of different spectroscopic methods, including extensive 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopy. Lup-20(29)-en-24-oic acid (1) has shown moderate antimicrobial activity, against some fish pathogens.
