Acidic and alkaline hydrolysis of diol-type ginseng saponins produced a new glycoside, (20E)-ginsenoside Rh$_{3}$, and its stereoisomer (20Z)-, which were further subjected to alkaline by drolysis to give their aglycones, (20E)- and (20Z)-3$\beta$, 12$\beta$-dihydroxy-dammar-20(22),24-diene. The ratio of stereoisomeric mixtures was estimated to be ca. 5:1 from intensities of the peaks in $^{1}$H- and $^{13}$C-NMR spectra. The $^{1}$H- and $^{13}$C-NMR signals of ginsenoside Rh$_{3}$, which have remained unclarified, were completely assigned by the extensive application of modern NMR techniques.
