Chemical investigation of the dichlroromethane extracts of Cycas saxatilis, a plant endemic to the Philippines ledto the isolation of squalene (1), chlorophyll a (2), and hydrocarbon (3) from the leaflets;β-sitosterol (4) and triacylglycerols (5) from theroots; 3,4, and unsaturated fatty acids(6) from the bark; and 3and5 from the petiole and rachis. The structures of 1-6 were identified by comparison of their NMR data with literature data.
