Woodrosin I (65) is an ether-insoluble glycolipid isolated from the stems of Ipomoea tuberosa L. (Merremia tuberosa (L.) Rendle) commonly called woodrose after the shape of its dried calyx (28). Its lactone moiety spans four glucose units to form a 27-membered macrocycle. Further challenges arise from the additional acylation pattern at the periphery of the branched and hence highly hindered pentasaccharide perimeter of this glycoconjugate.

The content of cuscohygrine in dried roots is widely divergent and may vary from 0.00001% (Merremia tuberosa) to 0.15% (Convolvulus floridus) according to a study on 14 species [Calystegia (1), Convolvulus (9), Merremia (3), Ipomoea (1)] (Jenett-Siems 1996).
