Objective: To study the triterpenoid saponins in Hemsleya chensnsis.
Method: The chemical constituents were isolated and purified by various chromatographic methods and their structures were elucidated on the basis of spectral analysis.
Result: Seven known triterpenoid saponins were isolated from the root of H. chensnsis and were identified as 3-O-beta-D-glucuropyranosyl-oleanol-icacid (1), 3-O-beta-D-glucopyra-noside-oleanolicacid-28-O-beta-D-glucopyranoside (2), 3-O-(6'-methylester)-beta-D-glucuropyranosyl olea- nolic acid-28-O-alpha-L-arabinopyranoside (3), 3-O-(6'-methylester)-beta-D- glucuropyranosyl- oleanolic acid-28-O-beta-D-mannupyranoside (4), 3-O-(6'-ethyl ester)-beta-D-glucuropyranosyl oleanolic acid-28-O-beta-D- glucopyranoside (5), 3-O-alpha-L-arabinopyranoside-(1-->3) -beta-D-glucuropyranosyl- oleanolic acid-28-O-beta-D-glucopyranoside (6), 3-O-beta-D-glucu-ropyranosyl-oleanolic acid-28-O-beta-D-glucopyra-noside-(1-->6)-beta-D-glucopyranoside (7).
Conclusion: Compounds 1-7 were isolated from this plant for the first time.

Background: Excessive lipogenesis of the skin triggers some dermatological concerns, such as enlarged pores, acne, and blackheads. Although topical drug treatments can offer temporary relief, their prolonged usage may lead to side effects of dryness, irritation, or allergic reactions. Consequently, the development of safer and efficacious ingredients in cosmetics for managing sebum overproduction represents a significant yet challenging endeavor.

Rationale: Panax quinquefolius L. (PQ), a commonly used traditional Chinese medicine and a food, is usually processed into various products, including white PQ, red PQ (two- or three-time steamed PQ), and black PQ (nine-time steamed PQ). Previous studies demonstrated that volatile components (VOCs) were the important active substances of PQ, which had antibacterial, antiviral, and anti-leukemia activities.

Previously undescribed triterpenoid saponins (1-8), along with eight previously reported analogues (9-16), were isolated from an EtOAc extract obtained from the roots of Rubus setchuenensis. Structures were established based on HRESIMS, 1D and 2D NMR, as well as by literature comparisons. All compounds were isolated for the first time from the genus Rubus.
