Natural Product Identification
Common NameDigitogenin
DescriptionDigitogenin, also known as digitonin aglycon, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as triterpenoids. These are terpene molecules containing six isoprene units. Thus, digitogenin is considered to be a sterol. Digitogenin is found in Digitalis lanata Ehrh. and Digitalis purpurea . Digitogenin was first documented in 1971 (PMID: 5545780). Based on a literature review a small amount of articles have been published on digitogenin (PMID: 17135046) (PMID: 6097588).
