Abstract

A new triterpenoid saponin, ardicrenin (1), isolated from the roots of Ardisia crenata Sims was established as cyclamiretin A-3-O-[α-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1→4)-β-D-glucopyranosyl-(1→4)][β-D-glucopyranosyl-(1→2)]-α-L-arabinopyranoside. A partially hydrolyzed saponin (3) was characterized as cyclamiretin A-3-O-β-D-glucopyranosyl-(1→2)-α-L-arabinopyranoside.
