✦ Synopsis


Two novel triterpenoid saponins, phelasin A (1) and phelasin B (2), were isolated from the bark of Anthocephalus cadamba (Roxb) Miq. The structures were established by one-and two-dimensional 1 H and 13 C NMR spectroscopy. The aglycone of 1, phelasingenin (3), is a new compound characterized as 3ˇ-hydroxy-olean-18-ene-27,28-dioic acid. Molecular mechanics and molecular dynamics studies carried out on 3 showed the preferred conformation adopted by the molecule.

Two novel triterpenoid saponins, Snatzkein A and B, were isolated from Arenaria ülicaulis Boiss. One possesses an unusual 2º-O-hydroxyethylated glucose moiety. Their structure and conformational behaviour were investigated by one-and two-dimensional 1H and 13H NMR spectroscopy.
