Abstract

Three triterpeniods were isolated from the leaf extract of Vitex doniana (Verbenaceae). Their structures were established mainly by FTIR, FABMS,  highresolution(1Dand 2D) spectroscopic and chemical analysis as 1α, 3β-dihydroxybauer-7-en-28 oicacid(1), 2β, 3β, 19α, 24-tetrahydroxy-23-norus- 12-en- 28-oic acid(2) and (3β, 5a, 7β)-3,7-dihydroxy-4, 4, 14-trimethyl-11, 15-dioxochol-8-en-24-oic acid (3).

Keywords: Vitex doniana, Verbenaceae; leaf extract, triterpeniods, high resolution (1D and 2D).
