Abstract
One new triterpene compound, 3β-acetoxylup-20(30)-en-29-al (1) and two known 3-acetylptiloepoxide (2) and 3β-acetoxylup-20(29)-ene (3) were isolated for the first time from the leaves of Campanula lactiflora and their structures were deduced by high field 1D and 2D 400 MHz NMR, EI-MS and (+) LC-MS/MS spectra.
