Abstract: In order to support toxicological assessment of poisoning from the ingestion of plant material containing thevetia cardiac glycosides, a new isolation method has been developed for thevetia glycosides from the seeds of the Yellow Oleander [Thevetia peruviana (Pers.) K. Shum, Apocynaceae] with yellow and orange flowers, respectively, using accelerated solvent extraction. The relative proportions of four cardiac-active thevetia glycosides (thevetin A and B, acetylthevetin A and B) and two additional, cardiac-inactive thevetia glycosides (thevetin C and acetylthevetin C) in the extract were determined using an LC-ESI+-MS/MS technique. Absolute quantification of thevetin B was achieved using a pure standard of this compound isolated by preparative high performance liquid chromatography.
