Triterpene glycosides ofAstragalus and their genins. XVI. Cyclogaleginosides A and B fromAstraglus galegiformis

Two glycosides of the cycloartane series — cyclogaleginosides A and B — have been obtained from inflorescences ofAstragalus galegiformis L. (Leguminosae), and their structures have been established by chemical transformations and spectral characteristics as cyclogalegigenin 3-O-(2-O-acetyl)--D-xylopyranoside and cyclogalegigenin 3-O--D-xylopyranoside, respectively.I.
