The structure of the isolated compounds were established as erythrodiol (<strong>1</strong>), betulinic acid (<strong>2</strong>), ?-sitosterol-3-<em>O</em>-?-D-glucoside (<strong>3</strong>) and taraxerol (<strong>4</strong>) by high field NMR analyses. This is the first report of the occurrence of these compounds in <em>C. citrinus </em>growing in Bangladesh.</p><p>Dhaka Univ. J. Pharm. Sci. 15(1): 1-5, 2016 (June)</p> ER -
