Abstract

Ipomoea carnea has been identified as a medicinal shrub and produces a variety of secondary metabolites. Present study deals with the isolation and identification of a naturally occurring new compound, dodecyl-p-coumarate (1), together with seven known compounds: methylp- coumarate (2), octyl-p-coumarate (3), umblelliferone (4), escopoletin (5), 3-oleanone (6), β-sitosterol (7) and stigmasterol (8). The structures of all these compounds could be established by the combination of 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopy and mass spectrometry, or by comparison with the literature values. Compounds 2-8 have been reported for the first time from this source.
