Triterpene glycosides of Astragalus and their genins XLII. Cycloartanes of Astragalus tragacantha

Another six components ofAstragalus tragacantha Habl. have been identified on the basis of spectral characteristics and chemical transformations. We have previously described cyclocanthagenin and its 3-0--D-xylopyranoside — cyclocanthoside A — as products of the acid hydrolysis of cyclocanthoside D. Cyclocanthosides B, C, E, and G are here described for the first time and are (24S)-cycloartane-3,6,16,24,25-pentol 3-O-(4-O-acetyl--D-xylopyranoside) 6-O--D-glucopyranoside, (24S)-cycloartane-3,6,16,24,25-pentol 6-O-(6-O-acetyl--D-glucopyranoside) 3-O--D-xylopyranoside, (24S)-cycloartane-3,6, 16,24,25-pentol 6-O--D-glucopyranoside, and (24S)-cycloartane-3, 6, 16, 24, 25-pentol 6-O--D-glucopyranoside 3-O-[O--D-glucopyranosyl-(12)--D-xylopyranoside], respectively.Institute of Chemistry of Plant Substances, Uzbekistan Academy of Sciences, Tashkent.

Triterpene glycosides ofAstragalus and their genins XLV. The chemical transformation of cycloartanes 1. Synthesis of 25-norglycosides

Literature information is given on the current state of the study of the chemical transformation of cycloartane triterpenoids. A method has been developed for the transformation of the genin part of glycosides of 20,24-epoxycycloartan-25-ols with retention of the carbohydrate constituents. Three 25-norglycosides have been synthesized from natural cyclosieversigenin glycosides, namely 16-acetoxy-3,6-dihydroxy-20R,25-norcycloartan-20,24-olide 3-O-[O--L-arabinopyranosyl-(12)--D-xylopyranoside] 6-O--D-xylopyranoside (VIII), sodium 3,6,16,20-tetrahydroxy-20R,25-norcycloartan-24-oate 6-O--D-glucopyranoside 3-O--D-xylopyranoside (XII), and 20R,25-norcycloartane-3,6,16,20,24-pentaol 6-O--D-glucopyranoside 3-O--D-xylopyranoside (XIII).Institute of the Chemistry of Plant Substances, Academy of Sciences of the Republic of Uzbekistan, Tashkent.

Steroids of the furostan and spirostan series from Nolina microcarpa II. structures of nolinospiroside D and nolinofurosides D, E, and F

Proofs are given of the structures of two new glycosides of the furostan series isolated from the leaves of the plantNolina microscarpa S. Wats. (family Dracaenaceae). Nolinofuroside D is (25S)-furost-5-ene-1,3,22,26-tetraol 1-O--D-galactopyranoside 26-O--D-glucopyranoside (I), and nolinofuroside F is (25S)-furost-5-ene-1,3,22,26-tetraol 1-O--D-fucopyranoside 26-O--D-glucopyranoside 3-O--L-rhamnopyranoside (VII). The latter was characterized as its 22-O-methyl ether (VIII). Nolinofuroside E (IV) has the structure of (25S)-furost-5-ene-1,3,22,26-tetraol 26-O--glucopyranoside 1-O-[O--L-rhamnopyranosyl-(12)--D-fucopyranoside], which followed from the structure of the fermentation product (VI). The products of the fermentation of the above-named compounds were present in the plant in only trace amounts. Only one of them — nolinospiroside D (III) — has not been described previously. This monoside of the spirostan series is (25S)-spirost-5-ene-1,3-diol 1-O--D-galactopyranoside.M. V. Frunze Simferopol' State University.
