Complete 1H and 13C NMR assignments of sesquiterpene glucosides from Ixeris sonchifolia.

Four sesquiterpene glucosides were isolated from Ixeris sonchifolia Hance. The structure of a new compound (1) was assigned as 9beta-monohydroxy-2,12-dioxo-guaia-3,11(13)-dien-1alpha,5alpha,6beta,7alpha,9beta,10alphaH-12,6-olide-9-O-beta-D- glucopyranoside (ixerinoside). In addition, unambiguous and complete assignments of (1)H NMR chemical shifts for crepidiaside A (2), ixerin Z (3), and 11,13alpha-dihydroixerin Z (4) are presented. The assignments were achieved by two-dimensional NMR (gCOSY, gHSQC, gHMBC, NOESY) and one-dimensional nuclear Overhauser effect (NOE) experiments. Copyright (c) 2007 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
