Neomogroside is a cucurbitane glycoside isolated from the fruit of Siraitia grosvenorii . [1]

Cucurbitane chemical compound

Cucurbitane is a chemical compound with formula C
30H
54. It is a polycyclic hydrocarbon, specifically a triterpene. It is an isomer of lanostane, from which it differs by the formal shift of a methyl group from the 10 to the 9β position in the standard steroid numbering scheme.

Glycoside molecule in which a sugar is bound to another functional group

In chemistry, a glycoside is a molecule in which a sugar is bound to another functional group via a glycosidic bond. Glycosides play numerous important roles in living organisms. Many plants store chemicals in the form of inactive glycosides. These can be activated by enzyme hydrolysis, which causes the sugar part to be broken off, making the chemical available for use. Many such plant glycosides are used as medications. Several species of Heliconius butterfly are capable of incorporating these plant compounds as a form of chemical defense against predators. In animals and humans, poisons are often bound to sugar molecules as part of their elimination from the body.

<i>Siraitia grosvenorii</i> species of plant

Siraitia grosvenorii is a herbaceous perennial vine of the Cucurbitaceae (gourd) family, native to southern China and northern Thailand. The plant is cultivated for its fruit, whose extract is nearly 300 times sweeter than sugar and has been used in China as a low-calorie sweetener for cooling drinks and in traditional Chinese medicine.

Mogroside group of chemical compounds

A mogroside is a glycoside of cucurbitane derivatives found in certain plants, such as the fruit of the gourd vine, luo han guo. Mogrosides are extracted from S. grosvenorii and used in the manufacture of sugar substitutes.

Longevity fruit may refer to the fruit of:

Yongfu County County in Guangxi, Peoples Republic of China

Yongfu County is a county under the administration of the prefecture-level city of Guilin, Guangxi, China, located 55 km (34 mi) to the southwest of downtown Guilin. The county is mostly rural and hilly, marked by the same dramatic karst topography for which Guilin is famous.

Cucurbitacin group of chemical compounds

Cucurbitacin is any of a class of biochemical compounds that some plants — notably members of the family Cucurbitaceae, which includes the common pumpkins and gourds — produce and which function as a defence against herbivores. Cucurbitacins are chemically classified as triterpenes, formally derived from cucurbitane, a triterpene hydrocarbon—specifically, from the unsaturated variant cucurbita-5-ene, or 19-(10→9β)-abeo-10α-lanost-5-ene. They often occur as glycosides. They and their derivatives have been found in many plant families, in some mushrooms and even in some marine mollusks.

Siamenoside I chemical compound

Siamenoside is a cucurbitane, a natural sweetener from the fruit of Siraitia grosvenorii combined with neomogroside. The mixture is about 300 times sweeter than sucrose. It is used as a natural sweetener in China.

<i>Hedyotis diffusa</i> species of plant

Hedyotis diffusa is a kind of herb used in traditional Chinese medicine. It is sometimes combined with Siraitia grosvenorii to make hot drinks like Lohoguo of Guongsei or Luohanguo Pearl and Sheshecao Beverage.
