Abstract
One new oleanane-type triterpene glycoside, oleanolic acid-[28 -O-β-d-glucopyranosyl]-3 -O-[ β-d-glucopyranosyl(1→6)- β-d-glucopyranosyl](1→3)[ α-l-arabinofuranosyl(1→4)]- β-d-glucuronopyranoside (1), and 3 known ones {oleanolic acid-[28 -O-β-d-glucopyranosyl]-3 -O-[ β-d-galactopyranosyl(1→3)]-[ β-d-glucopyranosyl(1→2)]- β-d-glucuronopyranoside (2) chikusetsusaponin IVa methyl ester (3), and chikusetsusaponin IV (4)} were isolated from the leaves of Aralia armata. Their chemical structures were elucidated using a combination of high-resolution electrospray ionization mass spectrometry, 1-dimensional and 2-dimensional nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectral data, as well as comparison with data in the previous literature. This is the first report of full NMR spectroscopic data of 2. Compounds 1-4 displayed weak cytotoxic activity toward KB and HepG2 cell lines, with half-maximal inhibitory concentration50 values ranging from 24.2 ± 0.3 to 32.6 ± 0.8 µM in in vitro assay.
