| dc.description.abstract | A new oleanane type triterpene characterized as 3a, 24-diacetoxy12-oleanene (1) together with known compounds 2-10, were
isolated from Annona mucosa leaf extracts. Their structural elucidation was accomplished using physical and spectroscopic methods. The compounds showed weak to moderate insecticidal
activities against stored maize insect pests Sitophilus zeamais and
Prostephanus truncatus. | en_US |
