Phytochemical investigation of the roots of Salacia longipes var. camerunensis led to the isolation of a new triterpenoid, salacetal (1), together with the known compounds mangiferin, 2-hydroxy- 3-oxo-D:A-friedooleanan-29-oic acid, β -sitosterol, and stigmasterol. The structure of the new compound as well as those of the known compounds were established by means of spectroscopic methods and by comparison with reported data.
