Abstract
Three antifungal compounds have been isolated for the first time from
the peels of Ipomoea batatas Lam. Their structures were established
on the basis of 1D and 2D NMR spectra data as well as ESI-MS and IR
analysis. Urs-13(18)-ene-3β-yl acetate was found to possess a weak
activity against Sporothrix schenckii and Trichophyton metagrophytes
fungi with an MIC value of 50 μg/mL each. Stigmasterol and
3-friedelanol were equally active against T. metagrophytes.
