title: Cordioxime: a new dioxime gamma-lactam from Cordia platythyrsa.
abstract: Cordia platythyrsa Baker is known for its medicinal value. This paper deals with a phytochemical investigation of this species, from which cordioxime (1), a new dioxime y-lactam has been isolated. Its structure was determined by comprehensive analyses of its 1H and 13C NMR, COSY, HMQC, and HMBC spectroscopic, and HREIMS data. The remaining two known compounds were identified as beta-sitosterol, and beta-sitosterol glucopyranoside.
