In the course of our screening program for acylCoA:cholesterol acyltransferase (ACAT) inhibitors from Korean herbal medicines, ACAT inhibitors were isolated from the hairy roots of Panax ginseng (Araliaceae) and identified as panaxynol, panaxydol, panaxydiol, and panaxytriol. These active compounds inhibit rat liver ACAT with IC50 values of 94, 80, 45 and 79 μM, respectively.

Acetylpanaxydol (1-Ac), PQ-3 (2) and panaxydiol (3) and their optical isomers were synthesized from L-(+)-diethyl tartrate. The absolute configurations of 1-Ac, 2 and 3 were determined to be 1-Ac (3R,9R,10S), 2 (9R,10S) and 3 (3R,10S), respectively, by comparisons of their optical rotations and the NMR data of their MTPA esters with those of natural products.
