Abstract: | Two new triterpenoid saponins, symplocososides X (1) and Y (2) have been isolated from the roots of Symplocos chinensis, and their structures elucidated as 21β-O- cinnamoyl-22α-O-(2-methylbutanoyl)-15α, 16α, 28-trihydroxyolean-12-ene-3β-O-[β-d-glucopyranosyl (1 → 2)]-α-l-arabinofuranosyl (1 → 4)-β-d-glucuronopyranoside (1) and 21β-O-cinnamoyl-22α-O-(2-methylbutanoyl)-15α, 16α, 28-trihydroxyolean-12-ene-3β-O-(3-O-acetyl)-[β-d-glucopyranosyl (1 → 2)]-α-l-arabinofuranosyl (1 → 4)-β-d-glucuronopyranoside (2) by spectral and chemical methods. Their antitumor activities have also been tested. |
