Triterpene glycosides ofHedera canariensis III. Determination of the structures of glycosides L-F1, L-F2, and L-I2 from the leaves of Algerian ivy

Abstract

The leaves of Algerian ivyHedera canariensis Willd. (Araliaceae) have yielded two new triterpene glycosides — caulophyllogenin 3-O-α-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1→2)-O-α-L-arabinopyranoside (L-F2) and its 28-O-α-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1→4)-O-β-D-gentiobiosyl ester (L-I2) - and also the previously known hederagenin 3-O-α-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1→2)-O-β-D-glucopyranoside (L-F1). The structures of the glycosides were established on the basis of chemical transformations and1H and13C NMR spectroscopy.
