Literature References: Secondary glycoside from Digitalis lanata Ehrh., or D. orientalis Lam., Scrophulariaceae: S. Smith, J. Chem. Soc. 1930, 508; Stoll, The Cardiac Glycosides (London, 1937); M. M. Dhar et al., IN 62497 (1958 to Council Sci. Indust. Res.), C.A. 53, 653b (1959). See also ref under Digoxigenin. Acid hydrolysis of digoxin yields 1 mol digoxigenin + 3 mols digitoxose. The sugar residue is attached to the hydroxyl group at C-3 of the aglycon. Clinical pharmacokinetics: J. K. Aronson, Clin. Pharmacokinet. 5, 137 (1980). Comprehensive description: P. R. B. Foss, S. A. Benezra, Anal. Profiles Drug Subs. 9, 207-243 (1980).
Properties: Radially arranged, four- and five-sided triclinic plates from dil alcohol or dil pyridine, decomp 230-265°. [a]25Hg +13.4 to 13.8° (c = 10 in pyridine). uv max (ethanol): 220 nm (e 12800). Sol in dil alcohol, pyridine, or mixt of chloroform and alcohol. Almost insol in ether, acetone, ethyl acetate, chloroform, water. More sol in hot 80% alcohol than gitoxin.
