- Abstract
- Phytochemical constituents were isolated from bitter melon (the fruits of Momordica charantia) through open column chromatography. Their structures were identified as β-sitosterol (1), (23E)-5β,19- epoxycucurbita-6,23-diene-3β,25-diol (2), daucosterol (3), uracil (4), and allantoin (5) by interpretation of spectroscopic analysis including MS and 1H- & 13C-NMR. Among them, allantoin (5) was isolated from this plant for the first time.
