Antitubercular triterpenes and phytosterols from Pandanus tectorius Soland. var. laevis

Bioassay-guided chromatographic purification of the antitubercular chloroform extract of Pandanus tectorius Soland. var. laevis leaves afforded a new tirucallane-type triterpene, 24,24-dimethyl-5β-tirucall-9(11),25-dien-3-one ( 1 ), squalene and a mixture of the phytosterols stigmasterol and β-sitos...

Zusammenfassung:Bioassay-guided chromatographic purification of the antitubercular chloroform extract of Pandanus tectorius Soland. var. laevis leaves afforded a new tirucallane-type triterpene, 24,24-dimethyl-5β-tirucall-9(11),25-dien-3-one ( 1 ), squalene and a mixture of the phytosterols stigmasterol and β-sitosterol. Microplate Alamar Blue Assay (MABA) showed that 1 inhibited the growth of Mycobacterium tuberculosis H 37 Rv with a MIC of 64 μg/mL, while squalene and the sterol mixture have MICs of 100 and 128 μg/mL, respectively.
