title: Camellisins A-C, three new triterpenoids from the roots of Camellia sinensis.
abstract: Eighteen compounds, including three new triterpenoids, camellisins A-C (1-3), were isolated from the roots of Camellia sinensis. Their structures were determined on the basis of detailed spectroscopic analysis.
