Abstract
Ground part of Euphorbia adenochlora MORR. et DECNE. was extracted with petroleum benzine and the extract was treated by chromatography. A wax-like nonacosane (?), m.p. 54∼55°, and β-sitosterol were isolated, besides taraxerone and taraxerol, a five-membered ring triterpene, and cycloartenol and euphol, a four-membered ring triterpene.
