Abstract

Two new 27-hydroxyoleanolic acid-type triterpenoid saponins, raddeanoside Ra (1) and raddeanoside Rb (2), were isolated from the rhizome of Anemone raddeana Regel. The structures of the two compounds were elucidated to be 27-hydroxyoleanolic acid 3-O-β-d-glucopyranosyl-(1 → 4)-α-l-arabinopyranoside (1) and 27-hydroxyoleanolic acid 3-O-α-l-arabinopyranosyl-(1 → 3)-α-l-rhamnopyranosyl-(1 → 2)-α- l-arabinopyranoside (2) on the basis of chemical and spectral evidence.
