Sterols from the fungus Lactarium volemus

Phytochemistry. 2001 Apr;56(8):801-6. doi: 10.1016/s0031-9422(00)00490-8.

Abstract

Seven ergostane-type sterols and two mono-glucosides were isolated from the ethyl acetate soluble fraction of Lactarium rolemus. Three are previously unknown, i.e. 3-O-beta-D-glucopyranosyl-22E,24R-5alpha,8alpha-epidioxyergosta-6,22-diene, 3-O-beta-D-glucopyranosyl-22E,24R-5beta,8beta-epidioxyergosta-6,22-diene and 22E,24R-ergosta-7,22-diene-3beta,5alpha,6beta,9alpha-tetraol. The structural elucidation of these compounds was mainly achieved by spectroscopic methods.
