5,11-epoxymegastigmanes from the leaves of Asclepias fruticosa
Chemical and Pharmaceutical Bulletin 48(12) (2000) 1908-1911
 

Five new megastigmane glucosides and one of their aglycones were isolated, along with (6S,9R)-roseoside, from the polar fraction of the leaves of Asclepias fruticosa, and the structures were determined by spectroscopic methods. Most of them have an epoxy-linkage between C-5 and C-11. The configurations at C-3 and C-9 for each compound were confirmed to be S and R, respectively, by application of the modified Mosher's method.

Suggested pharmacophagy of the African bushhopper Phymateus leprosus (Fabricius) (Pyrgomorphidae, Orthoptera)
Zeitschrift für Naturforschung. C, Journal of Biosciences 55(5-6) (2000) 442-448
 

The bushhopper Phymateus leprosus (Fabricius) in the field shows a special appetite for the milkweed Asclepias fruticosa. Asclepiadaceae, like Apocynaceae and Scrophulariaceae, contain cardiac glycosides. Raw and purified extracts of these plants phagostimulate larval and adult P. leprosus. We also screened natural and half-synthetic compounds found in those plant extracts. While saponins and sapogenins did not stimulate the animals, many cardiac glycosides and aglycones, offered on filter paper, proved to be phagostimulants.
