Abstract
The structures of the new compounds were determined as gypsogenic acid 28-O-beta-D-glucopyranosyl-(1 -> 2)-O-beta-D-glucopyranosyl-(1 -> 6)-O-beta-D-glucopyranosyl ester (1), 3-O-alpha-L-arabinofuranosyl-gypsogenic acid 28-O-beta-D-glucopyranosyl-(1 -> 3)-O-[beta-D-glucopyranosyl-(1 -> 6)]-O-beta-D-glucopyranosyl ester (2), 3-O-alpha-L-arabinofuranosyl-gypsogenic acid 28-O-beta-D-glucopyranosyl-(1 -> 3)-O-[beta-D-glucopyranosyl-(1 -> 2)-O-beta-D-glucopyranosyl-(1 -> 6)-O-]-beta-D-glucopyranosyl ester (3), 3-O-alpha-L-arabinofuranosyl-16 alpha-hydroxyolean-12-en-23,28-dioic acid-28-O-beta-D-glucopyranosyl-(1 -> 3)-O-[beta-D-glucopyranosyl-(1 -> 2)-O-beta-D-glucopyranosyl-(1 -> 6)]-O-beta-D-glucopyranosyl ester (4).
