title: Taccasterosides A-C, novel C28-sterol oligoglucosides from the rhizomes of Tacca chantrieri.
abstract: Three novel C(28)-sterol oligoglucosides, named taccasterosides A-C (1-3), were isolated from the rhizomes of Tacca chantrieri (Taccaceae). Their structures were determined by detailed spectroscopic analysis, including 2D NMR data, and a few chemical transformations.
