NMR atructural analysis of a novel triterpenoid saponin extracted from Bellis perennis L.

Abstract

One of the chromatographic fractions of an extract from Bellis Perennis has been analyzed using NMR. The major component of the fraction has been identified to be a novel triterpenoid saponin: 3- O -α-rhamnopyranosyl polygalacic acid 28- O -{α-rhamnopyranosyl (1→3)-β-xylopyranosyl(1→4)α-rhamnopyranosyl( 1→2)-[α-arabinofuranosyl(1→3)-4- O -acetyl-β-fucopyranoside]}.
