Beta-Sitosteryl Acetate
Beta-sitosterol 3-O-acetate is a steroid ester obtained by the formal condensation of the hydroxy group of beta-sitosterol with acetic acid. It has been isolated from the mycelia of Cordyceps sinensis. It has a role as a plant metabolite and a fungal metabolite. It is an acetate ester and a steroid ester. It is functionally related to a sitosterol. It derives from a hydride of a stigmastane. — ChEBI
