| dc.description.abstract | Moringa stenopetala is a fast growing tree that grows abundantly in the southern part of Ethiopia, especially in the Konso area. It is widely used in Ethiopian traditional medicine for the control of diabetes, malaria and hypertension. The seeds are used traditionally as water clarifying agent . The ethanol extract of the leaves of M. stenopetala led to the isolation of three medicinally useful glycosides. The compounds were identified to be rutin, 4 -(4' -0-acetyla - L - rhamnosyloxy ) benzylisothiocyanate and 4 -( 4' - 0 - acety! - a - L - rhamnosyloxy)benzaidehyde. 4-(4'-0-acetyl-a-L-rhamnosyloxy)benzylisothiocyanate and 4-( 4'-0-acetyl-a-L-rhamnosyloxy)benzaldehyde are reported for the first time from M. stenopetala. Structure determination was accomplished by means of spectroscopic methods (UV, IR, 1H NMR, MS ) and chemical studies. | en_US |
