Eight new acylated polyhydroxyoleanene triterpenoidal saponins, aesculiosides A-H (1-8), along with four known ones, have been isolated from the seeds of Aesculus chinensis. On the basis of extensive NMR studies, the structures of the new compounds were determined to be 21-O- tigloylprotoaescigenin 3-O-[β-D-glucopyranosyl-(1→2)][β-D-glucopyranosyl- (1→4)]-β-D-glucuronopyranosyl acid (1), 21-O-angeloylprotoaescigenin 3-O- [β-D-glucopyranosyl-(1←2)[[β-D-glucopyranosyl-(1→)]-β-D- glucuronopyranosyl acid (2), 21,22-O-ditigloylprotoaescigenin 3-O-[β-D- glucopyranosyl-(1→2)][[β-D-glucopyranosyl-(1→4)]-β-D-glucuronopyranosyl acid (3), 21-O-tigloyl-22-O-angeloylprotoaescigenin 3-O-[β-D-glucopyranosyl- (1→2)] [β-D-glucopyranosyl-(1→4)-β-D-glucuronopyranosyl acid (4), 21,22- O-ditigloylprotoaescigenin 3-O-[β-D-glucopyranosyl-(1→2)][β-Δ- glucopyranosyl(1→4)]-methyl β-D-glucuronopyranosate (5), 21-O-tigloyl-22-O- angeloylprotoaescigenin 3-O-[β-D-glucopyranosyl-(1→2)-l]β-D- glucopyranosyl-(1→4)]-methyl β-D-glucuronopyranosate (6), 21-O-tigloyl-28- O-acetylprotoaescigenin 3-O-[β-D-glucopyranosyl-(1→2)][[β-D- glucopyranosyl-(1→4)]-methyl β-D-glucuronopyranosate (7) and 21-O-angeloyl- 28-O-acetylprotoaescigenin 3-O-[β-D-glucopyranosyl-(1→2)][β-D- glucopyranosyl-(1→4)]-methyl β-D-glucuronopyranosate (8).

Page/Page column 23, (2013/04/25)
The invention relates to the process for preparation of protoescigenin from escin isolated from Aesculum hippocastanum. The process comprises the following steps: two-step hydrolysis under acidic and basic conditions, enrichment of the crude mixture of sapogenins with protoescigenin, isolation of the mixture of sapogenins in a solid form, purification of the obtained solid and isolation of high purity protoescigenin. The present invention also relates to protoescigenin monohydrate in a crystalline form and the preparation thereof. Protoescigenin is a polyhydroxyl aglycone, which can be used as the synthon in the chemical modifications of naturally occurring saponis.
