Article Abstract
Mastic is a natural resin produced by Pistacia lentiscus L. (Anacardiaceae) with high medicinal value and have been traditionally used as Uighur imported medicine for centuries. In this study, 16 triterpenoids including seven new noroleanane triterpenoids (1-7), along with nine known oleanane triterpenoids (8-16), were isolated from the mastic. Their chemical structures were determined on the basis of extensive spectroscopic analyses (including IR, UV, ESI-HR-MS and NMR spectroscopy) and singlecrystal X-ray diffraction. Compounds 4-7, 11, 14 and 16 showed strong inhibitory NO production in LPS-induced RAW264.7 cells with IC values 7.44-9.76 μM, respectively (positive control dexamethasone, 9.93±1.17 μM). Furthermore, compounds 3 and 12 significantly inhibited the growth of SW480 cells, compound 3 showed the most pronounced inhibitory effect with an IC of 2.30±0.38 μM.

An investigation of EtOAc extract from the roots of Paeonia lactiflora yielded three new 30-noroleanane triterpenoids paeonenoides L-N (1-3) and one new oleanane triterpenoid paeonenoide O (4) together with 7 known compounds (5-11). Extensive spectrographic experiments were applied to identify the structures of 1-4, and their absolute configurations were unambiguously determined by theoretical calculations of ECD spectra, as well as the single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. Compounds 8, 9 and 10 were isolated from the Paeonia genus for the first time.

Three unusual oleanane-derived triterpenoids, stytontriterpenes A-C (1-3), were isolated from the resin of Styrax tonkinensis together with an oleanane-lactone (stytontriterpene D, 4). Their structures and absolute configurations were characterised using a combination of spectroscopic analysis, electronic circular dichroism, and theoretical calculations. 1 and 2 belong to nor-oleanane with rare spiro D/E rings and 3 contains one infrequent C scaffold.

This research aims to explore the saponins composition of in four northwest mountainous areas of Vietnam including Ha Giang, Lai Chau, Lao Cai, and Lang Son with the aid of high-resolution mass spectrometry. As a result, 42 saponins are successfully identified in leaves by UHPLC-Q-TOF-MS/MS analyses, in which two 30-noroleanane and four oleanane triterpene saponins structures have been reported for the first time. Two structures of were discovered in four samples.

Investigations on the twigs and leaves of Antirhea chinensis have led to the discovery of two undescribed pentacyclic triterpenoids (1 and 2) and nine known analogs. Compounds 1 and 2, each assigned as the ursane and 24-noroleanane-type triterpenoids, featuring similar oxidation pattern of 3β,6β,19α-trihydroxy-28-carboxyl. Their structures were elucidated via comprehensive analyses of spectroscopic data.
