Abstract
Tecostanine (1) was isolated from Tecoma stans leaves. Its sterochemistry was elucidated as well as its antihyperglycemic activity and its affinity to opioid and nicotinic receptors. The oxalate salt of 1 did not significantly affect blood glucose levels in normoglycaemic and hyperglycaemic rats. It did not appear to interact with opioid receptors (mu type) and showed only moderate affinity to the nicotinic receptor.Pubblicazioni consigliate
