Sterols of a diatomaceous ooze from walvis bay

Almost an of the solvent-extractable sterols and their nuclearsaturated analogues in a sample of Walvis Bay surface sediment have been analysed by capillary GLC and GC-MS, and by coinjection with a variety of standards. The presence in sediments of 22-$\text{trans}$-24-nor-5α-cholest-22-en-3β-ol, 24-methylene-5α-cholestan-3β-ol, and components tentatively assigned as 23,24-dimethylcholesta-5,22-dien-3β-ol and 23,24-dimethyl-5α-cholest-22-en-3β-ol has been demonstrated for the first time. A novel sterol and its saturated analogue have also been found. The sterol distribution cannot be related solely to the reported major input of phytoplankton; the presence of 22,23-methylene-23,24-dimethylcholest-5-en-3β-ol and its saturated analogue indicates a coelenterate contribution. The analysis emphasises the necessity of glass capillary columns and coinjection of standards.     

Minor sterols of marine invertebrates 37. Isolation of novel coprostanols and 4α-methyl sterols from the tunicate Ascidia nigra

The complex sterol mixture isolated from $\text{A, nigra}$ was found to contain a low level of Δ⁴-3-keto steroids, 5β-stanols and 4α-methyl sterols in addition to regular (4-demethyl) sterols. The following new marine sterols were isolated and identified using MS and 360 MHz NMR: 5β-cholest-22E-en-3β-ol, 24S-methyl-5β-cholest-22E-en-3β-ol, 24-methylene-5β-cholestan-3β-ol, both epimers at C-24 of 4α-methyl-24-ethyl-5α-cholest-22E-en-3β-ol, 4α, 22ξ, 23ξ-(or 24ξ-)trimethyl-5α-cholest-8(14)-en-3β-ol and (22S, 23S, 24S)-4α-24-dimethyl-22, 23-methylene-5α-cholestan-3β-ol. The latter sterol and 23-demethylgorqosterol have opposite configurations at C-22, C-23, and C-24; the Δ⁸⁽¹⁴⁾ sterol has an unprecedented side chain.     

Novel dinoflagellate 4α-methylated sterols from four caribbean gorgonians

Fourteen 4α-methyl sterols have been isolated from the gorgonians Briareum asbestinum, Gorgonia mariae, Muriceopsis flavida and Pseudoplexaura wagenaari, including the following five new sterols: 4α-methyl-24-methylene-5α-cholestan-3β-ol, (24R)-4α, 24-dimethyl-5α-cholesta-7,22-dien-3,β-ol, 4α,24S(or 23ξ)-dimethyl-5α-cholest-7-en-3β-ol, (22E, 24R)-4α,23,24-trimethyl-5α-cholesta-7,22-dien-3β-ol and (24R)-4α,24-dimethyl-5α-cholesta-8(14),22-dien-3β-ol. There is strong evidence that these 4α-methyl sterols are synthesized by the algal (dinoflagellate) symbionts (zooxanthellae) of the gorgonians. It is suggested that analysis of 4Δ-methyl sterol mixtures isolated from a zooxanthellae-bearing invertebrate, collected in several different geographic locations, might give information on the specificity of the symbiotic association between a given animal species and a particular strain of zooxanthellae.     

A new C26sterol peroxide from the opisthobranch mollusk Adalaria sp. and the sea pen Virgularia sp.

5,8α-Epidioxy-(22E)-24-nor-5α-cholesta-6,22-dien-3β-ol (8) has been isolated from the sea pen Virgularia sp. and has been observed as a component of a mixture isolated from the opisthobranch mollusk Adalaria sp. The structure of 8 was deduced from spectroscopic data. A further six sterol peroxides isolated from Adalaria and six from Virgularia were tentatively identified on the basis of spectroscopic analysis of mixtures.     

Amasterol,an ecdysone precursor and a growth inhibitor from Amaranthus viridis

A sterol isolated from the roots of Amaranthus viridis has been assigned the structure 24-methylene-20- hydroxycholest-5,7-en-3β-ol.     

The molecular structure of (10R)-17β-hydroxy-5-methylene-4,10-cyclo-19-nor-4,5-seco-17α-pregn-20-YN-1-one

The crystal and molecular structure of (10R)-17β-hydroxy-5-methylene-4,10-cyclo-19-nor-4,5-seco-17α -pregn-20-YN-1-one has been determined by X-ray analysis in order to ascertain the configuration at C(10). As observed in most other 17α-pregn-20-yn-17β-ol structures, atom 0(17B) participates as a donor in a hydrogen bond trans to the C(16)-C(17) bond, and there is a short C(21)…0 intermolecular contact.     

Incorporation of methionine-[methyl-2H3] and mevalonic acid-[2-14C,(4R)-4-3H1] into Phycomyces blakesleeanus sterols

Ergosterol, episterol, 4α-methyl-5α-ergosta-8,24(28)-dien-3β-ol and 24-methylene-24,25-dihydrolanosterol, isolated from Phycomyces blakesleeanus grown in the presence of methionine-[methyl-²H₃], each contained two deuterium atoms; lanosterol, however, was unlabelled. The ¹⁴C:³H atomic ratio of the following sterols isolated from P. blakesleeanus grown in the presence of mevalonic acid-[2-¹⁴C,(4R)-4-³H₁], was: ergosterol, 5:3; episterol, 5:4; ergosta-5,7,24(28)-trien-3β-ol, 5:3; 4α-methyl-5α-ergosta-8,24(28)-dien-3β-ol, 5:4; 24-methylene-24,25-dihydrolanosterol, 6:5; lanosterol, 6:5. The significance of these results in terms of ergosterol biosynthesis is discussed.     

Marine sterols. V. Isolation and structure of occelasterol, a new 27-norergostane-type sterol, from an annelida, Pseudopotamilla occelata

Occelasterol, a new marine C₂₇ sterol, has been isolated from an annelida, $\text{Pseudopotamilla occelata}$ and its structure was confirmed as 22-$\text{trans}$-27-nor-(24S)-24-methylcholesta-5, 22-dien-3β-ol (IIa) from the spectral data and by synthesis. Thissterol, the second member of a class of sterols having 27-norergostane-type side chain, had been formerly regarded as 22-$\text{cis}$-cholesta-5, 22-dien-3β-ol (Va). Gas-liquid Chromatographic studies have shown that occelasterol is distributed in various amounts in most of marine invertebrates.     

The identification of 24-methylene-24,25-dihydrolanosterol and other possible ergosterol precursors in Phycomyces blakesleeanus and Agaricus campestris

The following sterols have been isolated from the fungi, Phycomyces blakesleeanus and Agaricus campestris: ergosterol, lanosterol, 24-methylene-24,25-dihydrolanosterol and episterol. 4,4-Dimethyl-5α-ergosta-8.24(28)-dien-3β-ol and 4α-methyl-5α-ergosta-8,24(28)-dien-3β-ol have been tentatively identified. Evidence for the incorporation of label from l-methionine-[methyl-¹⁴C] into some of these sterols in P. blakesleeanus has been obtained. The significance of these sterols in ergosterol biosynthesis is discussed.     

Triterpene glycosides related to quadranguloside from Passiflora quadrangularis

Two new cyclopropane triterpene glycosides were isolated from the methanol extracts of leaves of Passiflora quadrangularis. On the basis of hydrolysis, spectral evidence and comparison with quadranguloside, these compounds were assigned the structures 9,19-cyclolanosta-22,25-epoxy-3β-21,22(R)-triol-3β-O-gentiobioside and 9,19-cyclolanosta-21,24-epoxy-3β-25,26-triol-3β-O-gentiobioside,respectively. Oleanolic acid-3-sophoroside was also isolated for the first time from a natural source.     

Sterols from Candida lipolytica yeast grown on n-alkanes

The sterols of Candida lipolytica grown on n-alkanes were isolated by reverse phase HPLC and found to be mainly ergosterol, with small quantities of ergost-7-en-3β-ol, ergosta-7,22-dien-3β-ol, ergosta-7,24(28)-dien-3β-ol and ergosta-5,7,9(11),22-tetraen-3β-ol.     

Fatty acid and sterol compositions in mushrooms of ten species of polyporaceae

The simple lipids present in ten species of Polyporaceae (Piptororus betulinus, Coriolus pargamenus, C. versicolor, C. heteromorphus, Formitopsis cytisina, F. pinicola, Microporus flabelliformis, Gloephyllum saepiarium, Crytoderma citrinum and Grifola frondosa) were investigated. The fatty acids that these species had in common were C₁₆-saturated acids (except in P. betulinus) and C₁₈-unsaturated acids. Ergosterol and ergosta-7,22-dien-3β-ol were isolated from these mushrooms. Lupeol was obtained from G. saepiarium. Ergost-7-en-3β-ol, lanosterol and 24-methylene-24,25-dihydrolanosterol were tentatively identified.     

Triterpenoids from two Mallotus species: a nor-triterpene and two new acids

The carbonyl compound, previously isolated from the stems of Mallotus paniculatus, has been proved to be 29-nor-21αH-hopane-3,22-dione. The light petrol extracts of both the leaves and stems of M. hookerianus have been found to contain friedelin, friedelan- 3β-ol and sitosterol, and the ethanol extract of the former two new triterpene acids, 3-oxours-12-ene-27,28-dioic and 3β,28-dihydroxyurs-12-en-27-oic acids.     

A new triterpene glucoside from Cymbidium giganteum

A new triterpene glucoside, cymbidoside, has been isolated from Cymbidium giganteum. Its structure is shown to be 4ξ-(β-d-glucopyranosyloxymethyl)-14α-methyl-22ξ, 24ξ, 25,28-tetrahydroxy-9,19-cyclo-5α,9β-ergostan-3-one.

Administration of labelled 3β,20ξ-dihydroxy-23-norchol-5-enoic acid, 3-oxo-20ξ-hydroxy-23-norchol-4-enoic acid, 3β,20ξ-dihydroxy-23-nor-5β-cholanoic acid, 3β,14β,20ξ-trihydroxy-23-nor-5β-cholanoic acid, 3β-hydroxy-23-norchola-5,20(22)E-dienoic acid, 3-oxo-23-norchola-4,20(22)E-dienoic acid and 3β-hydroxy-23-nor-5β-chol-20(22)E-enoic acid to Digitalis purpurea intact plants produced labelled digitoxin and gitoxin. The incorporation results indicate the existence of an alternative pathway, via norcholanoic acid derivatives, for the biosynthesis of the butenolide ring of cardenolides.     

Passiflorine,a new glycoside from Passiflora edulis

Passiflorine, a new glycoside isolated from P. edulis, was shown by chemical and spectroscopic considerations to be (22R), (24S)-22,31-epoxy-24-methyl-1α,3β,24,31-tetrahydroxy-9,19-cyclo-9β-lanostan-28-oic acid β-d-glucosyl ester (1).     

Solanopubamides a and b,two further steroidal alkaloids from solanum pu bescens
