Abstract
Frondoside C (I) is a new sulfated nonholostane triterpene glycoside o btained (with the glycosides closed by aglycone structure as impuritie s) from the sea cucumber Cucumaria frondosa. Its structure has been el ucidated on the basis of spectral data (NMR and MS) of compound I and of its desulfated derivative (2) obtained by solvolysis. Frondoside C (1) is just the seventh glycoside reported from sea cucumbers, having a lanostane-type aglycone devoid of the typical 18(20)-lactone ring.
