Tricalysionoside a, a megastigmane gentiobioside, sulfatricalysines a-F, and tricalysiosides X-Z, ent-kaurane glucosides, from the leaves of Tricalysia dubia

Abstract

Further isolation work on the water-soluble fraction of a MeOH extract of Tricalysia dubia afforded one new megastigmane gentiobioside, named tricalysionoside A (1), and three sulfates, named sulfatricalysines A-C (2-4). Extensive isolation work on the 1-BuOH-soluble fraction of a MeOH extract of T. dubia yielded sulfatricalysines D-F (5-7) and three new ent-kaurane glucosides, named tricalysiosides X-Z (8-10). The structures of the new compounds were elucidated by analyses of one- and two-dimensional NMR spectroscopic data. The absolute stereochemistry of tricalysionoside A (1) was established by modified Mosher's method. © 2011 Pharmaceutical Society of Japan.
