Abstract
Three new oleanane-type triterpenoid saponins named celosins H (1), I (2), and J (3) were isolated from the seeds of Celosia argentea L. Their structures were characterized as 3-O-β-d-xylopyranosyl-(1 → 3)-β-d-glucuronopyranosyl-polygalagenin 28-O-β-d-glucopyranosyl ester, 3-O-β-d-glucuronopyranosyl-medicagenic acid 28-O-β-d-xylcopyranosyl-(1 → 4)-α-l-rhamnopyranosyl-(1 → 2)-β-d-fucopyranosyl ester, and 3-O-β-d-glucuronopyranosyl-medicagenic acid 28-O-α-l-arabinopyranosyl-(1 → 3)-[β-d-xylcopyranosyl-(1 → 4)]-α-l-rhamnopyranosyl-(1 → 2)-β-d-fucopyranosyl ester by NMR, MS, and chemical evidences, respectively. In our opinion, celosins H–J could be used as chemical markers for the quality control of C. argentea seeds.
