“…Based on chemical and spectral evidences including infrared spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy ( 1 H-NMR, 13 C-NMR, 1 H-1 H COSY, HMQC, HMBC spectra), these saponins were identified to be ginsenosides-Rh 1 (Rh 1 ),-Rh 4 (Rh 4 ),-Rg 1 (Rg 1 ),-Re (Re), notoginsenosides-R 1 (R 1 ),-R 2 (R 2 ),-U (U) (Fig. 2) [44][45][46][47][48][49]. Notoginsenoside U, a novel saponin, was characterized as 20(s)-protopanaxatriol 20-O-h-D-glucopyranosyl-(1Y6)-h-D-glucopyranoside [43].…”
