title: Five new triterpene bisglycosides with acyclic side chains from the rhizomes of Cimicifuga foetida L.
abstract: Five new triterpene bisglycosides, foetidinosides A (1), B (2), C (3), D (4) and E (5), including three of the cycloartane type, one of its derivative, and one of the lanostane type were isolated from the rhizomes of Cimicifuga foetida. Their structures were elucidated on the basis of spectroscopic data and chemical evidence. They were the first bisglycosides with acyclic side chains which were different from the typical triterpenes with side chains epoxidized with ring D in Cimicifuga species.
