From the pulp of Euphoria longana (Longan Arillus), three cerebroside molecular species have been isolated. Six known cerebrosides, soyacerebrosides I and II, 1-Ο-$\beta$-D-glucopyranosyl-(2S,3R,4E,8E)-2-(2 -lignoceroylamino)-4,8-octadecadiene-1,3-diol (long an cerebroside I) and its 8Z isomer (Iongan cerebroside II), momor-cerebroside I, and phytolacca cerebroside, were identified as major components of these cerebroside molecular species. All the cerebrosides were shown to be a mixture of geometrical isomers (8E and 8Z) of sphingosine-type or phytosphingosine-type glucocerebrosides possessing 2-hydroxy fatty acids. The structures of these cerebrosides have been determined on the basis of chemical and spectroscopic evidence.

A new phenolic glucoside (1), pursargentoside, was isolated from the leaves of Prunus serrulata var. spontanea, along with three other known compounds, orobol 7-O-glucoside (2), $1{\beta}$, $2{\alpha}$, $3{\alpha}$, 24-tetrahydroxy-urs-12-en-28-oic acid (3), and chlorogenic acid (4). The structure of pursargentoside (1) was identified by spectroscopic data analysis including 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopy, as 2-O-${\beta}$-(6'-benzoyl)-glucopyranosyl o-(Z)-coumaric acid. Compounds 1, 2, and 4 exhibited ONOO- scavenging activity, whereas compound 3 was determined to be virtually inactive.

Two new compounds lanast-5,8-dien-3β-ol-27-oic acid-3β-D-glucopyranosyl (4'-1'')-10'',11''-dimethoxy anthracene (1), 2-methoxy-6-(n-nonacontan-5'',6''-dionyl)-11-hydroxy-13-methyl-11β-D-rhamnopyranoside anthracene (2) have been isolated from the hairy root cultures of Catharanthus roseus. Their structures have been elucidated with the help of 500 MHz NMR using one- and two-dimensional NMR in combination with IR, EI/MS, FAB/MS and HRFABMS spectroscopy.

A new lignan named as hibiscuside, (+) pinoresinol 4-O-[-glucopyranosyl (12) -rhamnoside] (1), and a known lignan, syringaresinol (2) were isolated from the root bark of Hibiscus syriacus together with two feruloyltyramines (3,4) and three known isoflavonoids (5,6,7). The structures of these compounds have been established on the basis of their NMR, Mass, UV spectra. Among these phenolic compounds,6-O-acetyl daidzin (5), 6-O- acetyl genistin (6), and 3-hydroxy daidzein (7) with IC50 values of 8.2, 10.6, and 4.1 M, respectively, significantly inhibited lipid peroxidation in rat liver microsomes Hibiscuside (1), E and Z-N-feruloyl tyramines (3,4) exhibited moderate antioxidant activity.

To improve the yield of genuine aglycones from glycosides, the conditions of alkaline hydrolysis were investigated, and a modified method was established. The modified method empolyed pyridine as an aprotic solvent. To complete the hydrolysis and obtain 20(S)-protopanaxadiol (1) and 20(S)-protopanaxatriol(2), which are the genuine aglycones of ginsenosides, total ginsenosides were refluxed with sodium methoxide in pyridine. Addition of methanol, a protic polar solvent to the reaction miuxture, led partial hydrolysis yielding a mixture of the genuine prosapogenols. Of the prosapogenols compound 3 and 6 characteristically possessed D-glucopyranosyl moiety attached at the sterically hindered C-20 hydroxyl group. 3 and 6 were not obtaijned by other hydrolysisw methods except by the soil bacterial hydrolysis.

A new cycloartane glycoside (1) was isolated from the aerial part of Thalictrum uchiyamai Nakai (Ranunculaceae). On the basis of chemical and physicochemical evidence, the aglycone structure of this compound was characterized as 116, 25-dihydroxy-3, 24-diacetoxy-9, 19-cycloartane-29-oic acid, a new derivative of cycloartane triterpene. Also the oli-gosaccharide moiety of this glycoside were determined as 29-O-${alpha}$-L-rhanmnopyranosyl- ($1rightarrow2$)-[${beta}$-D-xylofuranosyl-($1rightarrow6$)-${beta}$-D-glucopyranose by application of HMBC technoque. Consequently, the structure of compound 1 was elucidated as 29-O-${alpha}$-L-rhanmnopyranosy-($1rightarrow2$)-[${beta}$-D-xylofuranosyl-($1rightarrow6$)-${beta}$-D-glucopyranosyl-16, 25-dihydroxy-3, 24-diacetoxy-9, 19-cycloartane-29-oic acid ester.

A new indolinepeptide (3） was isolated, together with two known compounds, a cerebroside (1） and an alloxazine (2）, from silkworm larvae infected with Paecilomyces sp. J300. On the basis of spectroscopic data, their structures were elucidated as (4E, 8E, 25, 2＇R, 3R ）-N-2＇-hydroxy-hexadecanoyl-1-O-$\beta$-D-glucopyranosyl-9-methyl-4, 8-sphingadienine (1）, 7,8-dimethylalloxazine (2） and 3$\beta$,5-dihydroxy-1-N-methyl-indoline-2$\beta$-carbonyl amino-D-alanyl-erythro-$\beta$-hydoxyiso-leucinyl-glycine (3）.

Prunioside A, isolated from the methanol extract of Spiraea prunifolia var. Simpliciflora's root, is composed of coumaroyl, monoterpene-type, and glucosyl units. The esterase activity of tannase was used to remove the p-coumaroyl and glucopyranosyl groups. The enzymatically hydrolyzed compound was reacted with various acyl chlorides to synthesize its ester derivatives, which showed the inhibitory effects on NO production in murine machrophage?like RAW 264.7 cells stimulated with lipopolysaccharide and interferon-γ.
