Bafouoside C, a new triterpenoid saponin from the roots of Cussonia bancoensis Aubrev. & Pellegr.
Abstract A new triterpenoid saponin named bafouoside C 3-O-β- d -glucopyranosyl-(1 → 4)-[β- d -galactopyranosyl-(1 → 2)]-β- d -glucuronopyranosyloleanolic acid 28-O-β- d -glucopyranosyl ester; (1), together with five known compounds 3-O-β- d -galactopyranosyl-(1 → 2)-β- d -glucuronopyranosyloleanolic acid (2), 23-hydroxyursolic acid (3), 28-O-α- l -rhamnopyranosyl-(1 → 4)-O-β- d -glucopyranosyl-(1 → 6)-O-β- d -glucopyranosyl-23-hydroxyursolic acid (4), 3-O-β- d -glucopyranosyl-23-hydroxyursolic acid (5), and 3-O-α- l -arabinopyranosyl-23-hydroxyursolic acid (6), were isolated from the roots of Cussonia bancoensis Aubrev. & Pellegr. Their structures were established on the basis of 1D- and 2…
Steroidal saponins from the aerial parts of Cordyline fruticosa L. var. strawberries.
A new sulfated steroidal derivative (fruticogenin A: 1-sulfo-australigenin-3-sodium sulphate, 1) and three new steroidal saponins named fruticoside K (3-sulfo-spirostan-25(27)-ene-1β,3β-diol-1-O-[α-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1 → 4)-β-D-fucopyranoside], 2), fruticoside L (3-sulfo-spirostan-25(27)-ene-1β,3β,6α-triol-1-O-[α-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1 → 4)-β-D-fucopyranoside], 3) and fruticoside M (spirostan-25(27)-ene-1β,3α-diol-1-O-[α-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1 → 2)-α-L-rhamnopyranoside], 4) were isolated from the aerial parts of Cordyline fruticosa L. var. strawberries. Their structures were established on the basis of 1D and 2D NMR data, mass spectrometry and chemical methods. Compounds 2 and 4 exhibited weak …
