Grosmomoside Ⅰ, a new cucurbitane triterpenoid glycoside from fruits of Momordica grosvenori / 中草药

ABSTRACT

Objective To carry out a systematic study on the chemical constituents in the fruits of Momordica grosvenori. Methods To isolate pure compounds by using repeated column chromatography, while the structure of a new compound was determined by detailed spectral analysis. Results Four cucurbitane triterpenoid glycosides, mogroside Ⅱ_E(Ⅰ), mogroside Ⅲ(Ⅱ), grosmomoside Ⅰ (Ⅲ), and mogroside Ⅴ (Ⅳ) were isolated from the 50% ethanolic extract of the fruits of M. grosvenori. Conclusion Grosmomoside Ⅰ is a new compound identified as mogrol-3-O-?-D-glucopyranoside-24-O-{[?-D-glucopyranosyl(2-1)]-[?-D-glucopyranosyl (6-1)]-?-D-galactopyranoside} and the other three compounds are known compounds.
