Abstract

Three novel and six known petuniasterones were isolated from the aerial parts of P. hybrida. Chromatog. yielded four groups of novel 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acylated sucrose ester isomers. The sucrose esters showed molluscicidal and bactericidal activities. Petuniasterones had different molluscicidal activities, depending on the side chains.
