The constituents of Clitoria macrophylla Wall. Cat., a Thai medicinal plant. The structure of a new rotenoid, clitoriacetal.

Abstract
A new rotenoid, clitoriacetal (I) [which has anti-inflammatory and antipyretic properties] was isolated from the crude drug named "Non-tai-yak" [used for the treatment of skin diseases] which was identified as the root of Clitoria macrophylla (syn. C. hanceana) by comparison with the authentic specimen, together with a known rotenoid, stemonacetal. The structure of clitoriacetal was elucidated to be I by chemical and spectral analysis.
