Abstract

Nine new triterpene saponins, ilekudinosides K-S (1-9), and eight known triterpene saponins were isolated from the 70% ethanol extract of the leaves of Ilex kudingcha. The new saponins were characterized as 3-O-alpha-L-rhamnopyranosyl(1-->2)-beta-D-glucopyranosyl-alpha-kudinlactone (1), 3-O-beta-D-glucopyranosyl(1-->3)-alpha-L-arabinopyranosyl-beta-kudinlactone (2), 3-O-alpha-L-rhamnopyranosyl(1-->2)-alpha-L-arabinopyranosyl-gamma-kudinlactone (3), 3-O-beta-D-glucopyranosyl(1-->2)-beta-D-glucopyranosyl-alpha-kudinlactone (4), 3-O-beta-D-glucopyranosyl(1-->2)-alpha-L-arabinopyranosyl-alpha-kudinlactone (5), 3-O-beta-D-glucopyranosyl(1-->3)-alpha-L-arabinopyranosyl-alpha-kudinlactone (6), 3-O-alpha-L-rhamnopyranosyl(1-->2)-beta-D-glucopyranosyl-beta-kudinlactone (7), 3-O-alpha-L-rhamnopyranosyl(1-->2)-alpha-L-arabinopyranosyl-beta-kudinlactone (8), and 3-O-alpha-L-rhamnopyranosyl(1-->2)-beta-D-glucopyranosyl-gamma-kudinlactone (9), respectively. The structures and stereochemistry of compounds 1-9 were elucidated by spectroscopic data interpretation and chemical degradation.
