ABSTRACT: Six saponins with low sugar chain were isolated from the leaves of Panax notoginseng (Burk) F. H. Chen. Their structures were elucidated as 20(R)-ginsenoside Rh2(I), 20(R)-ginsenoside Rg3(II), ginsenoside Mc(III), ginsenoside F1(IV), ginsenoside Rh1(V) and daucosterol(VI) by spectroscopic analysis and comparison with authentic samples. Compounds I-IV were first isolated from the plant.
