Description

The phase sensitive two-dimensional (2D) 13C-1H heteronuclear correlated and double quantum filtered COSY n.m.r. spectra of the triterpenes 7β-acetoxyhopan-22-ol and 2α,3β,22α-triacetoxystictane have been recorded at a resolution sufficient for the complete assignment of their proton resonances. Revisions to some of the methylene proton resonances of 7βacetoxyhopan-22-ol proposed elsewhere are discussed, and assignments for a series of flavicene and stictane triterpenes are presented. 2D n.m.r. analyses of a new triterpene isolated from the extracts of the lichen Pseudocyphellaria coronata revealed it to be 22α-hydroxystictano-25,3β-lactone. 23 refs., 5 figs., 5 tabs
