Phytochemical study on the underground parts of Hosta longipes gave six new steroidal saponins together with a known one. The structures of the new compounds were determined by detailed analysis of their 1H- and 13C-NMR spectra including two-dimensional NMR spectroscopy, acid-catalyzed hydrolysis
Three new spirostanol saponins and two new furostanol saponins were isolated from the underground parts of Hosta longipes. Their structures were determined to be (25R)-5 alpha-spirostane-2 alpha, 3 beta-diol (gitogenin) 3-O-{O-alpha-L -rhamnopyranosyl-(1-->2)-beta-D-galactopyranoside}, gitogenin
