Studies on the constituents of Clematis species. VII. Triterpenoid saponins from the roots of Clematis terniflora DC. var. robusta Tamura.

摘要

From the roots of Clematis terniflora, nine new oleanolic acid 3,28-O-bisdesmosides called clematernosides A, B, E, F, G, H, I, J and K, and two new hederagenin 3,28-O-bisdesmosides called clematernosides C and D, have been isolated together with two known saponins, huzhangoside B and clematichinenoside C. The structures of the new saponins have been elucidated based on chemical and spectral evidence. Among the new spaonins, clematernosides I and J have a nonasaccharide moiety and a total of twelve monosaccharide moieties in the molecule. This is the first report of the isolation and structure elucidation of such "big" glycosides.
