Triterpene glycosides ofHedera taurica I. Structure of tauroside E from the leaves ofHedera taurica

The structure of taurorisde E — the predominating triterpene glycoside from the leaves of Crimean ivy,Hedera taurica Carr. has been established by¹H and¹³C NMR spectroscopy using nuclear Overhauser effects. It is 3-O-O--L-rhamnopyranosyl-(12)--L-arabinopyranosyl]hederagenin.M. V. Frunze Simferopol' State University. Translated from Khimiya Prirodnykh Soedenenii, No. 3, pp. 363–366, May–June, 1987.
