Abstract
Two new triterpenoids (wistariasapogenols A and B) were obrained from the knots of Wistaria brachybotrys (Leguminosae), and characterized as 22-oxo-3β, 24, 30-trihydroxyolean-12-ene (1) and 3β, 22β, 24, 30-tetrahydroxyolean-12-ene (8) by analysis of the two-dimensional nuclear magnetic resonance spectra (1H-1H correlation spectroscopy (COSY), 1H-13C COSY and 1H-13C long-range COSY) and the difference nuclear Overhauser effect spectra.
