Two new phenylpropanoid glycosides elucidated as 2,6-dimethoxyphenyl-4-propylene-1-O-β-D-apiofuranosyl-(1-6)-β-D-glucopyranoside (1) and 2-methoxyphenyl-4-propylene-1-O-β-D-apiofuranosyl-(1-6)-β-D-glucopyranoside (2), along with three known phenylpropanoid glycosides (3-5) were isolated from Mountain Cultivated Ginseng. The structures of compounds 1-5 were elucidated on the basis of comprehensive spectroscopic data including 1D, 2D NMR spectra, and MS. In addition, in vitro cytotoxicity of all the isolated compounds was evaluated against HELA cell.
