Four (1, 8-10) and six known (2-7) withanolides were isolated from the leaves of Withania somnifera. Among the new compounds, 10 possessed the rare 3-O-sulfate group with the Saturation in A ring and 9 contained unusual 1,4-dien-3-one group. Compound 8 did not have usual 2,3 unsaturation in A ring while 1 had the rare C-16 double bond. The structures of all the compounds were elucidated by spectroscopic methods and chemical transformation. (c) 2005 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
