The oil of the fruits ofLuffa echinataRoxb. is found to deposit the hydrocarbon, hentriacontane, C31H64. Saponin has been isolated in partially purified form, and the sapogenin is identified as gypsogenin. On reduction with sodium borohydride it gave hederagenin. Reduction of its methyl ester by a modified Wolff-Kishner method gave oleanolic acid. Glucose, rhamnose, and xylose have been identified among the sugars present. They seem to occur in the molecular ratio of glucose-xylose-rhamnose 3:2:1.
