Extensive phytochemical work on the 1-BuOH-soluble fraction of a MeOH extract of the leaves of Symplocos cochinchinensis var. philippinensis resulted in the isolation of 14 new triterpenene saponins, along with four known ones. Their structures were elucidated by comparison of NMR spectroscopic data with related compounds reported in the literature.

Spectroscopic analysis of 1 and 2 established their structures to be derivatives of a glycerol α-glucuronide and a megastigmane glycoside, respectively.

The structures of the new compounds were elucidated on the basis of spectroscopic and chemical evidence.
