Their structures were established as 21 beta-tigloyl-28-acetylbarringtogenol C-3 beta-O-[beta D-galactopyranosyl( 1-->2)] [beta-D-glucopyranosyl (1-->])1-beta-D-glucopyranosiduronic acid (1) and 21 beta-angeloyl-28-acetylbarringtogenol C-3 beta-O-[beta-D;galactopyranosyl (1-->2)] [beta-D-glucopyranosyl(1 -->4)]-beta-D-glucopyranosiduronic acid (2), which are geometrically isomeric.展开更多
