“…Hundreds of limonoids have been isolated from various plants yet, their occurrence in the plant kingdom is confined to only plant families the Rutales, Meliaceae, and Rutaceae [146]. Limonoids are stereochemically homogenous compounds, with a prototypical structure either containing or derived from a precursor with a 4,4,8-trimethyl-17-furanylsteroid skeleton [146]. All naturally occurring citrus limonoids contain a furan ring attached to the D-ring, at C-17, as well as oxygen containing functional groups at C-3, C-4, C-7, C-16, and C-17 [146].…”
