Triterpenoid saponins from the fruits of Ternstroemia japonica.
Three new triterpenoidal monodesmosides (1-3) and three new triterpenoidal bisdesmosides (4-6), together with two known saponins (7 and 8), were isolated from the fresh fruits of Ternstroemia japonica. The structures of 1-6 (ternstroemiasides A-F) were elucidated on the basis of spectral analysis and chemical degradation.
