Triterpene saponins of Maesa lanceolata leaves

Chemical investigation of Maesa lanceolata leaves aqueous MeOH extract has led to the isolation of eight new triterpene glycosides identified as 16-oxo-28-hydroxyolean-12-ene 3-O-β-glucopyranosyl-(1''→6')-β- glucopyranoside 1, 16α, 28-dihydroxyolean-12-ene 3-O-β-[(6"-O- galloylglucopyranosyl-(1"→2')][β-glucopyranosyl-(1'''→6')] -β-glucopyranoside 2, 16α, 22α, 28-trihydroxyolean-12-ene 3-O-[β-glucopyranosyl-(1"→2')] [α-rhamnopyranosyl- (1'''→6']-β-glucopyranoside 3, 22α-acetyl-16α- hydroxyolean-12-en-28-al 3-O-[α-rhamnopyranosyl- (1""→6"')-β-glucopyranosyl-(1"'→3')] [β-glucopyranosyl-(1"→2')]-β-arabinopyranoside 4, 22α-acetyl-16α,21 β-dihydroxyoleanane-13β:28-olide 3-O-[β-glucopyranosyl-(1'''→6')] [6''-O-coumaroylglucopyranosyl- (1''→2')]-β-glucopyranoside 5, 16α,22α-diacetyl-21β- angeloyloleanane-13β:28-olide 3 β-O-[β-glucopyranosyl- (1''→2')][β-glucopyranosyl-(1'''→4')]-β-glucopyranoside 6, 16α, 22α, 28-trihydroxy-21β-angeloyloleanan-12-ene 3 β-O-[α-rhamnopyranosyl-(1'''→6'')][β-glucopyranosyl- (1''→2')]-β-xylopyranoside 7, 16α, 28-dihydroxy-22α- acetyl-21β-angeloylolean-12-ene 3-O-[β-galactopyranosyl- (1"→2')] [α-rhamnopyranosyl-(1'"→4')]-α- arabinopyranoside 8. Together with these were known compounds quercetin, myricetin, quercetin 3-O-rhamnopyranoside, myricetin 3-O-β-glucopyranoside, gallic acid, sistosterol 3-O-β-glucopyranoside, rutin, myricetin 3-O-α-rhamnopyranosyl-(1"→3')-β-glucopyranoside and quercetin 3,7-O-β-diglucopyranoside. Their structures were determined using spectroscopic methods as well as comparison with data from known compounds. The in vitro antibacterial activity of aqueous MeOH extract of the leaves of M. lanceolata was also investigated and zones of inhibition ranging from 28±0.1 to 10±0.2 mm were observed. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) for the extract ranged between 100 to 1000 μg/ml with the highest activity being observed with Vibro cholerae. Among the pure isolates, compound 6 was the most active and its highest recorded MIC value was 62.5 μg/ml against V. cholerae. ARKAT-USA, Inc.

AN OLEANANE TRITERPENE FROM ANAGALLIS ARVENSIS

A new triterpene metabolite with an oleanane skeleton, has been isolated from Anagallis arvensis and its structure established on the basis of spectral analyses (including (1)H-(1)H and (1)H-(13)C COSY), performed both on the original compound and its acid-catalysed hydrolysis product.A single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis performed on the p-iodobenzoate derivative enabled the assignment of the absolute configuration. Key words: Anagallis arvensis; Primulaceae; scarlet pimpernel; oleanane triterpene; X-ray diffraction analysis.

The structure of saponin a from Naumburgia thyrsiflora

Triterpene glycosides have been isolated from Naumburgia thyrsiflora (L.) Rchb. for the first time. It has been established that saponin A is a trioside of priverogenin A.
