Abstract
Vaccaroid A, a new triterpenoid saponin, showing uterine contraction, has been isolated from the seeds of Vaccaria segetalis and its structu re was elucidated to be 3 beta-hydroxyolean-12-en-23,28-dioic a-D-gluc opyranosyl-(1-->2)]-beta-D-glucopyranoside by using a combination of e xtensive 2D NMR techniques.
