Dammarane-type triterpene saponins from Panax japonicus.
Six new dammarane-type saponins (1-6), together with 11 known saponins (7-17), were isolated from Ye-Sanchi, the underground part of Panax japonicus collected in the South of Yunnan Province, China. Their structures were elucidated by chemical and spectroscopic means.
