Biosynthesis of diosgenin in Dioscorea tubers

Archives of Biochemistry and Biophysics, 1961
Abstract The incorporation of radioacetate into diosgenin by homogenates of Dioscorea floribunda has been demonstrated by rigorous purification of the isolated sapogenin. Mevalonic acid is not incorporated into diosgenin to any significant extent under these conditions.

Steroidal Sapogenins in Dioscorea collettii

Planta Medica, 1983
Ten Steroidal compounds were isolated from the acid-treated rhizome of wild DIOSCOREA COLLETTII collected from Sichuan province, China. Five of them were identified as diosgenin ( 1), yamogenin ( 2), beta-sitosterol ( 3), Delta (3,5)-deoxytigogenin ( 5) and isonarthogenin ( 9).

An Alkaloid of Dioscorea hispida, Dennst

Nature, 1951
THE alkaloid dioscorine, C13H19O2N, was first isolated in 1894 by Boorsma1 from Dioscorea hirsuta, Bl., and obtained in a crystalline condition by Schutte2. On the basis of degradation experiments, Gorter3 in 1911 suggested that the alkaloid belonged to the tropane group, and proposed the following structure:

Determination of diosgenin in Dioscorea deltoidea and Dioscorea sylvatica by using gas-liquid chromatography

The Analyst, 1970
A method for the determination of diosgenin in yams has been developed by using gas chromatography. The minced undried sample from large tubers, or sliced dried sample from small tubers, is hydrolysed by refluxing with 2 N hydrochloric acid, dried, extracted with light petroleum and the solvent removed.
