Five new highly oxygenated lanostane-type triterpenoids [ganoderic acid GS-1 (1), ganoderic acid GS-2 (2), ganoderic acid GS-3 (3), 20(21)-dehydrolucidenic acid N (4) and 20-hydroxylucidenic acid A (5)] were isolated from the fruiting body of Ganoderma sinense, together with known compounds including 6 triterpenoids and 3 sterols. The structures of the new triterpenoids determined by spectrosco...

Aralia chinensis var. dasyphylloides is widely distributed in China and used as a traditional herbal medicine for the treatment of digestive and immune system diseases. The present study aimed to search for novel oleanolic-type triterpenoids in low-polarity fractions. Six new triterpene derivatives (1-6), together with two known compounds were isolated from the barks of A. chinensis var. dasyph...

Four new triterpenoid saponins, designated as stelmatotriterpenosides E-H (1-4), together with three known compounds, asterbatanoside B (5), 2alpha,3beta,19alpha,23-tetrahydroxy-olean-12-en-28-oic acid-3-O-beta-D-glucopyranosyl-28-O-beta-D-glucopyranosyl ester (6) and 2alpha,3beta,19alpha,23-tetrahydroxy-urs-12-en-28-oic acid-3-O-beta-D-glucopyranosyl-28-O-beta-D-glucopyranosyl ester (7), were ...

Gallbladder bile of the bullfrog, R a m catesbezana was found to contain a number of minor bile acids and bile alcohols in unconjugated forms. The following bile acids and bile alcohols were identified by combined gas-liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry: cholic acid, allocholic acid, 3a,7a, 12a-trihydroxy-5a-cholestan-26-oic acid, 3a,7a, 12atrihydroxy-24-methyl-5~-cholestan-26-oic acid, 3a,...

8-Aminoquinoline amides of 3-oxo-olean-12-en-28-oic acid and 3-oxo-urs-12-en-28-oic were obtained characterized by 1H, 13C-NMR single crystal X-ray analysis. The used triterpenoic acids are oxidized forms naturally occurring oleanolic ursolic acids. Such types derivatives known for their anticancer antiviral activities. On the other hand, 8-aminoquinoline frequently transition metal complexatio...
