On the basis of spectroscopic methods, their structures were elucidated as 24, 25-epoxy-tirucall-7-ene-3, 23-dione (1),24,25,26,27-tetranortirucall-7-ene-3-oxo-23(21)-Iactone (2),taraxerone (3),taraxerol (4)and β-sitosterol (5).Among them, compound 1 was a new triterpenoid, compounds 3-5 were firstly obtained from this plant; compound 2,an tetranortriterpenoid, was firstly isolated from natural sources, and its NMR data were assigned for the first time. Moreover, the △^7-bond and the Me-14 in compound 2 were never changed, which has never been found in other tetranortriterpenoids. And the biosynthetic pathway of tetranortriterpenoid was further discussed.展开更多
