o new cycloartane triterpene glycosides and a new alkaloid, soulieosides D and E, and soulieotine (1⎯3), and their structures were elucidated on the basis of extensive NMR spectral experiments and chemical methods as (20S∗, 22R∗, 23S∗, 24R∗)-16:23;22:25-diepoxy-3β,24-dihydroxy-23-methoxy-9,19- cyclolanostane-3-O-β-D-(4-acetyl)xylopyranoside (1), (20S∗,22R∗,23S∗,24R∗)-16β:23;22:25-diepoxy-3β,23,24-trihydroxy-9,19-cyclolanostane-3-O-β-D-(3-acet yl)xylopyranoside (2), E-3-(3'-methyl-2'-butenylidene)-6-methoxy-2-indolinone (3).

The ethanol extract of the flowers of Trollius ledebouri yielded four flavone C-glycosides, 2"-O-vanilloylvitexin, 2"-O-feruloylorientin, 2"-O-b-L-galactopyranosylvitexin, and 2"-O-b-L-alactopyranosylorientin, along with known compounds, 6"-O-acetylorientin, 2"-O-(4"-hydroxybenzoyl) vitexin, vitexin, and orientin. Their structures were elucidated by means of UV, IR, MS and NMR spectroscopic analyses.
