Two new steroidal glycosides from Cynanchum wallichii

Two new C21 steroidal glycosides were isolated from Cynanchum wallichii Wight. Their structures were elucidated as caudatin-3-O-β-d-glucopyranosyl-(1 → 4)-β-d-oleandropyranosyl-(1 → 4)-β-d-cymaropyranosyl-(1 → 4)-β-d-digitoxopyranoside (1) and caudatin-3-O-β-d-glucopyranosyl-(1 → 4)-β-d-cymaropyranosyl-(1 → 4)-β-d-oleandropyranosyl-(1 → 4)-β-d-cymaropyranosyl-(1 → 4)-β-d-digitoxopyranoside (2) by spectroscopic methods including 1D and 2D NMR experiments.
