We wish to report the following errors in our paper recently published in Molecules [1]: on page 3035, the correct name of compound 1 should be 12-O-benzoyl-3,14,17-trihydroxypregn-5-en-20-one. Then, in Figure 1 on page 3034, compound 2 should appear as saturated at C5-C6 with a 5-α H. On page 3037, the molecular formula of compound 2 should be C29H42O9, its m.p. should be 265 − 267 °C, and the FAB-MS (neg.) of compound 2 should be m/z 533 [M−H]−. Figure 1 below shows the revised structures of compounds 1 and 2. The authors apologize for any inconvenience to the readership.
