Vernoamyosides A-D (1-4), four new Delta(7, 9(11)) stigmastane-type steroid saponins were isolated from the dried leaves of an African medicinal plant Vernonia amygdalina Delile (Asteraceae). Their structures were determined by a combination of spectroscopic analyses (HR-ESI-MS, 1D/2D NMR) and by chemical methods. These four new compounds possessed highly oxidized side chains (C-20-C-29), and formed complex ring systems in 2-4. The inhibitory effects on NO production in lipopolysaccharide-activated RAW264.7 macrophages of these new compounds were tested. (C) 2015 Phytochemical Society of Europe. Published by Elsevier B.V.
