Aster saponin G is 3-0[α-L-arabinopyranosyl-(1→6)-β-D-glucopyranosyl]-2β,3β, 16α-trihydroxyolean-12-en-28-oic acid(asterogenic acid) 28-0-[β-D-xylopyranosyl-(1→4)-α-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1→2)-β-D-xylopyranosyl] ester

文摘Cynoglossum amabile Stapf et Drumm is widely distributed in southern China, which has been used as an anti-inflammatory, antihepatitis, anticystitis agent in Chinese folk medicine. However, only a few phytochemical researches have been performed . Therefore, a systematic chemical investigation of it was carried out. In this work, we further investigated the chemical constituents and ten compounds were obtained, three of which were triterpene acids.
