Abstract
Three cerebrosides2,3, and5 and two terpene glycosides1 and4 have been isolated from the methanol extract of the root ofAster scaber. Their structures were determined as 3-O-β-D-glucuronopyranosyl-oleanolic acid methyl ester (1), (2S, 3S, 4R, 2′R, 8Z, 15′Z)-N-2′-hydroxy-15′-tetracosenoyl-1-0-β-D-glucopyranosyl-4-hydroxy-8-sphingenine (2), (2S, 3S, 4R, 8Z)-N-octadecanoyl-1-O-β-D-glucopyranosyl-4-hydroxy-8-sphingenine (3), 1 α-hydroxy-6β-O-β-D-glucosyl-eudesm-3-ene (4), and (2S, 3S, 4R, 2′R, 8Z)-N-2′-hydroxy-hexadecanoyl-1-O-β-D-glucopyranosyl-4-hydroxy-8-sphingenine (5) on the basis of spectroscopic methods.
