Title: Steroidal saponins from the rhizomes of Smilax menispermoidea
Abstract: Four steroidal saponins were isolated from the dried rhizomes of Smilax menispermoidea. One of them is new and its structure was established as (25S)spirost-5-en-3β,17α-triol-3-O-[α-l-rhamnopyranosyl (1 → 2)] [α-l-rhamnopyranosyl(1 → 4)]-β-d-glucopyranoside using spectrometry and chemical methods, as well as comparison with three known steroidal saponins, dioscin, methyl protodioscin and pseudoprotodioscin.
