Triterpenoid oligoglycosides from Chionodoxa luciliae

Phytochemistry. 1993 Oct;34(3):773-8. doi: 10.1016/0031-9422(93)85357-w.

Abstract

Four minor novel oligoglycosides of triterpenes having a lanostane-type skeleton were isolated from the bulbs of Chionodoxa luciliae. The C30 skeleton of the aglycones has been found for the first time in Liliaceae and can be considered the metabolic precursor of the C29 eucosterol skeleton.
