RT journal article T1 Triterpene Saponins from the Aerial Parts of Trifolium medium L. var. sarosiense A1 Pawelec, Sylwia A1 Jędrejek, Dariusz A1 Kowalczyk, Mariusz A1 Pecio, Lukasz A1 Masullo, Milena A1 Piacente, Sonia A1 Macías Domínguez, Francisco Antonio A1 Simonet Morales, Ana María A1 Oleszek, Wieslaw A1 Stochmal, Anna A2 Química Orgánica K1 trifolium medium var. sarosiense K1 zigzag clover K1 triterpene saponis AB Seven previously unreported triterpene glycosides (1−7) were isolated from methanol extract of the aerial parts ofTrifolium medium var. sarosiense (zigzag clover). Their structures were established by the extensive use of 1D and 2D NMR experiments along with ESI-MS and HRMS analyses. Compounds 1−7 are oleanane derivatives characterized by the presence of a keto group at C-22 of an aglycone and a primary alcoholic function at C-24 and differing functions at C-30. Among these, compounds 1−3 and 6 showed a secondary alcoholic function at C-11, which is methoxylated in compounds 4 and 7. Compound 5 was shown to possess a known aglycone, wistariasapogenol A; however, it is described here for the first time as a saponin constituent of the Trifolium genus. Some aspects of taxonomic classification of zigzag clover are also discussed.
