Chemical investigation of the dichloromethane extract of the leaves of Artocarpus altilis yielded β-sitosterol (1), unsaturated triglycerides (2), squalene (3), polyprenol (4), lutein (5) and unsaturated fatty acids. The structures of 1-5 were identified by comparison of their 1H and/or 13C NMR data with those reported in the literature. Chemical investigation of the dichloromethane extract of Artocarpus odoratissimus afforded 1, 2, and unsaturated fatty acids from the flesh of the fruit and seeds; and 1, unsaturated fatty acids and hydrocarbons from the fruit rind.
