Abstract
From the seeds of Pharbitis nil (Convolvulaceae), two new oleanene-type triterpene glycosides, pharbitosides A (1) and B (2), together with beta-sitosterol, beta-sitosterol glucoside (daucosterol), caffeic acid, and methyl caffeate were isolated. The structure of pharbitoside A (1) was elucidated to be queretaroic acid 3-O-alpha-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1-->2)-O-beta-D-glucopyranosyl-(1-->2)-beta-D-glucopyranoside (1). Pharbitoside B (2) is a 21alpha-hydroxyoleanolic acid saponin carrying the same sugar moiety as that of pharbitoside A (1).
