Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: The structure and stereochemistry at ring A of alphitolic acid was confirmed by a partial synthesis of methyl dihydroalphitolate from betulic acid, which was obtained from Eurya acuminata as mentioned in this paper.
Abstract: Seven pentacyclic triterpenes were isolated from Dryobalanops aromatica, of which two were artifacts. The structure and stereochemistry at ring A of alphitolic acid was confirmed by a partial synthesis of methyl dihydroalphitolate from betulic acid, which was obtained from Eurya acuminata.

TL;DR: The tree trichilia heudelottii gave a series of esters of an oxidised triterpene alcohol with formic, acetic, and 2-methylbutyric acids and with unidentified hydroxy-acids as mentioned in this paper.
Abstract: Extraction of the timber of Trichilia heudelottii gave a series of esters of an oxidised triterpene alcohol with formic, acetic, and 2-methylbutyric acids and with unidentified hydroxy-acids. These are referred to as heudelottins. The parent alcohol has been assigned the structure 14β, 15β-epoxy-7α,11 β,12α-trihydroxy-3-oxomeliac-1-ene. The name is based on the furyl cyclopentanophenanthrene meliacan, which is the parent of a number of limonoid triterpenes.

TL;DR: The structure of leontoside E has been established as a hexaoside of hederagenin this article, and its O-glycosidic moiety is branched and consists of O-β-D-glucopyranosido(1.
Abstract: ConclusionsThe structure of leontoside E has been established as a hexaoside of hederagenin. Its O-glycosidic moiety is branched and consists of O-β-D-glucopyranosido(1 » 4)-O-β-D-glucopyranosido(1 » 3)-O-α-L-arabopyranose and its O-acyl glycosidic moiety is O-α-L-rhamnopyranosido(1 » 4)-O-β-D-glucopyranosido(1 » 6)-O-β-D-glucopyranose.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this article, the monosaccharide composition and the approximate quantitative ratio of the sugars in the carbohydrate moiety of each leontoside have been established from the tubers of Leontice eversmannii bge.
Abstract: Triterpene glycosides, which we have called leontosides A, B, C, D, and E, have been isolated from the tubers ofLeontice eversmannii Bge. The monosaccharide composition and the approximate quantitative ratio of the sugars in the carbohydrate moiety of each leontoside have been established. In leontosides A, B, and C, the carbohydrate moiety is bound only to the alcoholic group of hederagenin, while in leontosides D and E there is also an O-acyl glycosidic bond to the carboxy group.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this paper, the acyl α-D-glucopyranoside, the α-d-xylopyranoide, α-n-α-arabinopyranodes, and α-β-Dlactoside of 18β-glycyrrhetic acid have been synthesized.
Abstract: SummaryThe acyl α-D-glucopyranoside, the acyl α-D-xylopyranoside, the acyl D- and L-α-arabinopyranosides, and the acyl β-D-lactoside of 18β-glycyrrhetic acid, and also the acyl β-D-lactoside of 18α-glycyrrhetic acid have been synthesized. The acid and alkaline hydrolysis of the compounds obtained has been studied.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: The structure of leontoside D-a hederagenin pentaoside has been established as mentioned in this paper, and the O-glycosidic and O-acyl moieties were established.
Abstract: ConclusionsThe structure of leontoside D-a hederagenin pentaoside-has been established. The O-glycosidic moiety of leontoside D is O-β-D-glucopyranosido-(1 → 4)-O-α-L-arabopyranose, and the O-acyl moiety is O-α-L-rhamnopyranosido-(1 → 4)-O-β-D-glucopyranosido-(1 → 6)-O-β-D-glucopyranose.
