A new derivative of allo-inositol has been isolated from the aerial parts of Stocksia brahuica and named as brahol (1). The structure of 1 was elucidated with the help of extensive 2D-NMR spectroscopic techniques and identified as 5-O-methyl-allo-inositol. The structure was reconfirmed by acetate derivative (2).
