Two new triterpene glycosides, patagonicosides B and C ( 2 and 3 , resp.), together with the known patagonicoside A ( 1 ), have been isolated from the EtOH extract of the sea cucumber Psolus patagonicus. The structures of the new compounds were established on the basis of extensive NMR spectroscopic analysis ( 1 H‐ and 13 C‐NMR, 1 H, 1 H‐COSY, HMBC, HSQC, TOCSY, and NOESY), HR‐ESI‐MS data, and chemical transformations. Compounds 1 – 3 and their desulfated analogs showed antifungal activities against the phytopathogenic fungus Cladosporium cladosporoides in a dose‐dependent fashion.
