Kuguacin S: C 30H 44O 4; 17 mg/kg, powder, melts at 174–177 °C [1]: 14
Kuguacins F-S can be extracted with
ethanol from the stems and leaves of M. charantia. Kuguacins I, J, and Q are artifacts of the extraction process. Kuguacin R is obtained as mixture of two epimers. In this process one also obtains
momordicine I,[3] kuguacin E, 5β,19-epoxycucurbita-6,23-diene-3β,19,25-triol,[4]karavilagenin D,[5] 3β,7β,25-trihydroxycucurbita-5,(23E)-dien-19-al,[6] and 3β,7β-dihydroxy-25-methoxycucurbita-5,(23E)-dien-19-al[6] In vitro tests showed weak anti-HIV activity for kuguacins F-S, especially kuguacin Q and kuguacin S.[1]
