Abstract
The compositions of the triterpene fractions of the unsaponifiable part of the ethereal extracts of the leaves ofB. nana andB. exilis have been studied. The leaves ofB. exilis have yielded a new triterpene for which the structure of 3α,20(S),25-trihyproxydammar-23-ene is proposed, and a four component mixture of epimers at C-3 and C-24 of the compound 3ξ,20(S),24ξ-trihyproxydammar-25-ene. The composition and ratio of the components of the mixture were determined on the basis of chemical and spectral characteristics.
