Abstract

Two new oleanane-type triterpene glycosides designated as Termiarjunoside I and Termiarjunoside II were isolated from stem bark of Terminalia arjuna (Combretaceae) and characterized as olean-1α,3β,9α,22α-tetraol-12-en-28-oic acid-3β-D-glucopyranoside (1) and olean-3α,5α,25-triol-12-en-23,28-dioic acid-3α-D-glucopyranoside (2) based on chemical and spectral data evidences. Both compounds 1 and 2 potently suppressed the release of nitric oxide and superoxide from macrophages and also inhibited aggregation of platelets.
