Four novel triterpenoid saponins were isolated from the seeds of Vaccaria segetalis. Their structures were established as vaccaroside A, gypsogenic acid-28-O-β-D-glucopyranosyl-(1 → 2)-β-D-glucopyranosyl-(1 → 6)-[β-D-glucopyranosyl-(1 → 3)]-β-D-glucopyranoside; vaccaroside B, gypsogenic acid-28-O-β-D-glucopyranosyl-(1 → 2)-[3-hydroxyl-3- methylglutaroyl-(1 → 6)]-β-D-glucopyranosyl-(1 → 6)-[β-D-glucopyranosyl- (1 → 3)]-β-D-glucopyranoside; vaccaroside C, 23-O-β-D-glucopyranosyl- gypsogenic acid-28-O-β-D-glucopyranosyl-(1 → 2)-β-D-glucopyranosyl-(1 → 6)-[β-D-glucopyranosyl-(1 → 3)]-β-D-glucopyranoside and vaccaroside D, 3,4-secogypsogenic acid-28-O-β-D-glucopyranosyl-(1 → 3)-[β-D- glucopyranosyl-(1 → 6)]-β-D-glucopyranoside by a combination of extensive NMR (DEPT, COSY, HOHAHA, HETCOR, HMBC and NOESY) studies and chemical degradation.
