A new nortriterpene, rhombenone (1) was isolated from the leaves of Hedera rhombea Bean (Araliaceae). The structure of this compound was established as 27-demethyl-20(S)-dammar-23-ene-$6{\alpha}$, 20-diol-3, 25-dione on the basis of spectral analysis including HMQC and HMBC techniques. Rhombenone (1) was the first 27-demethyl nortriterpene of dammarane type isolated from natural sources.

The constitution of genin A-a new triterpenoid isolated from the roots of Phytolacca americana L. has been shown to be 3-oxo-30-carbomethoxy-24-norolean-12-en-28-oic acid. This compound is not a genuine spogenin but an artifact produced during hydrolysis of the Phyolacca saponins.
