Structure of a pentacyclic triterpenyl angelate from Loeseliamexicana. 1H 2D-NMR data and stereochemistry

Abstract
The total assignment of 1H NMR spectra of a pentacyclic triterpene from Loeseliamexicana was performed using selected 2D-NMR experiments (COSY, NOE). X-ray diffraction data were obtained from the parent compound as supplemental information to the NMR investigations. The data allowed for the unambiguous assignment of the structure and the stereochemistry of the title compound. Keywords: pentacyclic triterpene NMR, 2D NMR of terpenes, X-ray of triterpenes, triterpenyl angelate NMR, X-ray -2D NMR structure determination.
