Abstract--An acylated trtterpene glycostde was isolated from the roots of Dtpsacu, asper together wrth the known trtterpene gfycostde. akebta saponm D, and the known rrtdord glycosrdes, swerostde. loganm and cantfeyostde The structure of the acylated compound was eluctdated as the 4’-O-acetate of akebta saponm D by spectroscoptc methods _____ -~

revealed to be 3-0-r-L-arabmopyranosyl hederagenm 2%@~-D-glucopyranosyl (l +h)-/3-D-gfucopyranoside, a compound prevtously isolated from ALebra 9urnuta, and named akebta saponm D [7] The r3C NMR spectrum of 2 was almost supertmposable on that of 1 As the FARMS showed the molecular ton at m/z 993 [M + Na]’ and the ‘H and r3C NMR spectra showed the presence of an acetyl group, It was apparent that compound 2 was a mono acetylated dertvatrve of 1 On selecttve cleavage, compound 2 gave compound 6 Compartson of the ’ 'C NMR data of compound 2 wtth those of compound 1 estabhshed that the acetyl group IS located at the C-4’ hydroxy group of Arabmose (Table 1) A stmrlar compound to 2, the 2’-0-acylated dertvatrve of akebta saponm D was Isolated from the roots of Pcltrrnra sc&osac~0l1r (Valertanaceae) [g]

Although a number of studies on the constituents of Dipsacus spectes have been reported [l-5], there are no reports on the constttuent of D asper We now report on the rsolatton of the 4’-O-acetate of akebta saponm D from the roots of this plant along with akebta saponm D and three known lrtdotd glycostdes RESCLTS Compounds

Compound 4 was tdenttfied as the secologanm swerostde by FABMS (m/z 359 [M + H] ‘)> rH-‘H 2D COSY and the r3C NMR, while compound 5 was shown to be the rrtdotd glycosrde, loganm, by FABMS and ‘H and 13CNMR [6] Both compounds were tdenttfied as their acetates Compound 3 gave a molecular ton at nrjz 769 [M + Na]1 The connecrtvmes of the loganm and the secorrtdotd units were revealed by ‘H-‘H 2D COSY Thus, compound 3 was considered to be the bts-trtdord glycosrde, cantleyostde The r3C NMR data of this compound were identical wrth those of cantleyosrde cited m ref [Z] Compound 1 was shown to be a trtterpene trrglycoside by r3C NMR spectroscopy On actd hydrolyses, 1 afforded hederagenm, glucose and arabmose Hederagenm was confirmed by duect comparison wtth an authentic sample On selective alkahnc hydrolyses, 1 gave hederagenm monoglycostde (6) mdtcatmg that 1 1s a btsdesmostdtc saponm and the 28-carboxyhc group 15 estertfied by a dtglycostde This was supported by the carbon signal at 695.7 (C-I”) Because 6 was shown to be hederagenm 3-0arabmostde by acid hydrolyses. and 1 showed the molecular ton at m,‘z 95 1 [M + Na] + on FABMS, 1 should have 2 mol of glucose m the estertfied sugar part In the 13C NMR spectrum, the hydroxymethyl carbon signal (C-6”. 869 4) of the sugar moiety was observed along wtth that of the termmal glucose The configurattons at C-i of each glycostde were determined by esttmatmg the d value of each anomertc proton stgnal Thus. compound 1 was asper
