Identification of cardiac glycosides

Summary

The molecule consists of an alcohol group or alcohol-like group (ligand, glycoside or glucoside) bound to a variable number of sugar molecules. If the ligand contains a sterol nucleus (steroid nucleus), its 17th carbon atom is connected to an unsaturated lactone ring, and its 3rd carbon atom is connected to a sugar molecule, this kind of glycoside is cardiac glycoside. Cardiac glycosides are a class of drugs with selective cardiac effects, also known as cardiac glycosides or cardiac glycosides. It is mainly used in the treatment of cardiac insufficiency, but also in the treatment of certain arrhythmias, especially supraventricular arrhythmias.
