H. Wright. METHODS: The compounds were isolated by various chromatographic techniques, and the structures of the new steroidal saponins were elucidated by extensive 1D- and 2D-NMR, MS, and IR spectral analysis. RESULTS: The 70% EtOH extract of the rhizomes of Dioscorea zingiberensis afforded two new steroidal saponins, zingiberenosides A(1) and B(2), along with eight known analogues, 3β, 26-dihydroxy-25(R)-furosta-△5, 20(22)-diene-3-O-α-Lrhamnopyranosyl-(1→2)-O-β-D-glucopyranoside(3), methyl parvifloside(4), deltoside(5), methyl deltoside(6), zingiberensis new saponin(7), deltonin(8), progenin III(9) and diosgenin-diglucoside(10). CONCLUSION: Two new steroidal saponins were isolated from Dioscorea zingiberensis and their structures determined.展开更多
