ABSTRACT
Fruits of Momordica cymbalaria were collected from the southern regions of Tamil Nadu, India and botanically identified. The fruit powder was subjected to successive solvent extraction in Soxhlet apparatus and the individual extracts were processed through solvent fractionation followed by column chromatography. Six compounds were isolated from fruits of Momordica cymbalaria. The compounds were characterized by using IR, mass, 1H NMR and 13C NMR spectral data. Four compounds, which had been isolated previously from Momordica charantia and a novel compound, 21, 22-didehydroxy momordicoside were isolated. Quercetin was also isolated and identified from the plant.
