Abstract

Two known glycosides and a novel trisaccharide fatty acid ester were isolated from the n-butanol-soluble fraction of the fruits of Morinda citrifolia (noni). Structure determination was carried out by spectral techniques such as MS, IR, NMR, and 2D-NMR. The novel trisaccharide fatty acid ester was elucidated as 2,6-di-O-(β-d-glucopyranosyl)-1-O-octanoyl-β-d-glucopyranose. The known compounds were identified as rutin and asperulosidic acid. Keywords: Noni; Morinda citrifolia; trisaccharide fatty acid ester; 2,6-di-O-(β-d-glucopyranosyl-1-O-octanoyl-β-d-glucopyranose; rutin; asperulosidic acid
