Abstract
Two new flavonol glycosides characterized as quercetin 3-O-α-l-rhamnopyranosyl-(1 → 2)-[β-d-glucopyranosyl-(1 → 3)-α-l-(4-O-trans-p-coumaroylrhamnopyranosyl)-(1 → 6)]-β-d-galactopyranoside-7-O-α-l-rhamnopyranoside (1) and kaempferol 3-O-α-l-rhamnopyranosyl-(1 → 2)-[β-d-glucopyranosyl-(1 → 3)-α-l-(4-O-trans-p-coumaroyl rhamnopyranosyl)-(1 → 6)]-β-d-galactopyranoside-7-O-α-l-rhamnopyranoside (2), together with two known flavonol glycosides quercetin 3-O-α-l-rhamnopyranosyl-(1 → 2)- [α-l-rhamnopyranosyl-(1 → 6)]-β-d-galactopyranoside-7-O-α-l-rhamnopyranoside (3) and kaempferol 3-O-α-l-rhamnopyranosyl-(1 → 2)-[α-l-rhamnopyranosyl-(1 → 6)]-β-d-galactopyranoside-7-O-α-l-rhamnopyranoside (4), were isolated from the whole plant of Aconitum tanguticum (Maxim.) Stapf. The structures of the new compounds were elucidated by spectroscopic methods, and the total 1H and 13C NMR chemical shifts were assigned.
