title: Saponins from the stem bark of Filicium decipiens.
abstract: Four new saponins have been isolated from the stem bark of Filicium decipiens and identified as 3-O-{beta-D-glucopyranosyl(1-->2)-beta- D-glucopyranosyl}-28-O-{[alpha-L-arabinopyranosyl(1-->2)-beta- D-xylopyranosyl (1-->6)]. [4-O-angeloyloxy-alpha-L-arabinopyranosyl(1-->2)-alpha-L- rhamnopyranosyl(1-->2)]}-beta-D-glucopyranosyl gypsogenic acid, 3-O-{beta-D-glucopyranosyl(1-->2)-beta-D- glucopyranosyl}-28-O-{[alpha-L-arabinopyranosyl(1-->2)- beta-D-xylopyranosyl(1-->6)] [4-O-angeloyloxy-alpha-L- arabinopyranosyl(1-->2)-alpha-L-rhamnopyranosyl(1-->2)]}-beta-D- glucopyranosyl medicagenic acid, 3-O-{beta-D-glucopyranosyl(1-->2)-beta-D- glucopyranosyl}-28-O-{[alpha-L-arabinopyranosyl(1-->2)] [beta-D-xylopyranosyl(1-->4)]alpha-L-rhamnopyranosyl(1-->2)-4-O-[3'- hydroxy-2'-methyl-butyroyloxy)-3-hydroxy-2-methyl-butyroyloxy++ +]-beta-D- fucopyranosyl} medicagenic acid and 3-O-beta-D-glucopyranosyl-28-O- {[alpha-L-arabinopyranosyl(1-->2)] [beta-D-xylopyranosyl(1-->4)] alpha-L-rhamnopyranosyl(1-->2)-4- O-[(3'-hydroxy-2'-methyl-butyroyloxy)-3-hydroxy-2-methyl-butyro yloxy]-beta- D-fucopyranosyl} zanhic acid. These structures were elucidated by analysis of 2D-NMR spectra and of electrospray ionization mass spectra.
