Abstract
The sterol compositions of the unsaponifiable matters from flower and seed oils of Solidago altissima L. were studied by GLC. The main sterol component of both the flower and seed oils was found to be spinasterol by means of physical data; NMR, MS, mp, and GLC. The other sterols which occured in minor amounts in the oils were tentatively identified as stigmasterol and Δ7-stigmastenol.
