A new plant source containing steroidal glycosides of the furostane and spirostane series has been shown. Ten individual steroidal glycosides (petuniosides) of the spirostane and furostane series have been isolated from Petunia hybrida L. seeds. They differ in the structures of aglycone and oligosaccharide chain, four of them are novel compounds, and their chemical structures have been established. Petuniosides A, C, and E are 3-O-beta-D-galactopyranoside spirostane; 3-O-beta-D-glucopyranosyl (1-->4)-beta-D-galactopyranoside spirostane; and 3-O-beta-D-glucopyranosyl-(1-->2)-beta-D-glucopyranosyl (1-->4)-beta-D-galactopyranoside of (25R)-5 alpha-spirostan-3 beta-ol, respectively. Petuniosides B, D, and F are 3-O-beta-D-galactopyranoside spirostane; 3-O-beta-D-glucopyranosyl (1-->4)-beta-D-galactopyranoside spirostane; and 3-O-beta-D-glucopyranosyl(1-->2)-beta-D-glucopyranosyl (1-->4)-beta-D-galactopyranoside of (25R)-5 alpha-spirostane-2 alpha, 3 beta-diol, respectively. Petuniosides E and F are new compounds, and B, C, and D have been detected in the Petunia genus for the first time. Glycosides of the furostane series, petuniosides I and K, are derivatives of (25R)-5 alpha-spirostane-3 beta, 22 alpha, 26-triol, and K and M of (25R)-5 alpha-spirostane-2 alpha, 3 beta, 22 alpha, 26-tetraol. Petuniosides I and L are new compounds, and K and M are known, but have been detected in the Petunia genus for the first time. Growth-stimulating activity has been established for petunioside M. This glycoside has been shown to enhance cucumber resistance to cucumber green eye-sport mosaic virus.
Cross-polarization (CP) magic angle spinning (MAS) solid-state 13C NMR spectra of five steroidal sapogenins: tigogenin ((25R)-5alpha-spirostan-3beta-ol), hecogenin (3beta-hydroxy-(25R)-5alpha-spirostan-12-one), diosgenin ((delta5-(25R)-5alpha-spirosten-3beta-ol), sarsasapogenin ((25S)-55beta-spirostan-3beta-ol), and smilagenin ((25R)-5beta-spirostan-3beta-ol) were recorded. The solid-state chemical shifts are almost the same as for solution, which indicate that confirmations of sapogenins are similar in both phases. The doubling of some resonances in the spectra of solid diosgenin shows that there are two molecules in the crystallographic asymmetric unit. The cross-polarization time constants T(CP) and relaxation times in the rotating frame T(1rho)H were obtained from the variable-contact cross-polarization experiments for tigogenin and diosgenin. The values of T(CH) for methyl carbons indicate fast rotation of methyl groups and are close (0.30-0.35 ms), suggesting that the interaction with their intramolecular neighbors is similar. The values of T(1rho)H for carbons of tigogenin are longer than of diosgenin. Very efficient cross-polarization dynamics results in short time required for obtaining a spectrum of sapogenin of remarkably good quality.

The acid-catalyzed hydrolytic cleavage of the 5,6-epoxyspirostane derivatives by the cation exchange resin Dowex 50W X8 has been exploited with the goal of developing synthetic protocols toward 3,4,5,6-polyhydroxyspirostane analogs that can serve as intermediates to potential biologically active compounds. Whereas the diastereomers (25R)-5 alpha, 6 alpha-epoxyspirostan-22 alpha-O-3 beta-ol and (25R)-5 beta, 6 beta-epoxyspirostan-22 alpha-O-3 beta-ol yield two products, (25R)-6 beta-methoxyspirostan-22 alpha-O-3 beta, 5 alpha-diol and (25R)-spirostan-22 alpha-O-3 beta, 5 alpha, 6 beta-triol on Dowex treatment in water-methanol, the alpha- and beta-diastereomers of the 5,6-epoxy derivative of 3 beta, 4 beta-diol provide a single product, (25R)-3 beta, 6 beta-dihydroxy-5 alpha-spirostan-4-one, in good yields. The structures of these products have been confirmed using 1H NMR, 13C NMR, and 1H-1H J-correlated spectroscopies. Multifunctional product formation suggests tremendous utility of Dowex in steroid synthesis. The product formation has been rationalized on the basis of differential conformational constraints of the A/B rings of the different epoxides in directing the reaction course. The reaction shows an interesting example of stereoelectronic effect of a single hydroxy group in discriminating solvent participation.
Eight new 5beta-hydroxy-spirostan-6-ones bearing hydroxy and amino functions in the A ring, i.e., 3beta-OH, 3alpha-OH, 2beta,3beta-OH, 2alpha,3beta-OH, 3beta-NH2, 2alpha-NH2-3beta-OH, 2beta-NH2-3beta-OH, and 2beta-OH-3beta-NH2, were efficiently synthesized, and their antiecdysteroid activities were evaluated on the metamorphosis bioassay of mosquito Aedes aegypti. To our knowledge, these new steroids represent the first 5beta-hydroxy-spirostanes which have been tested for antiecdysteroid activity in mosquitoes. The higher antagonistic effect was found for compounds bearing the 3beta-hydroxy and 2beta,3beta-dihydroxy functionality, which show promise as environmental friendly insecticides.
