The molluscicidal principle of Cornus florida L. ( Cornaceae ) has been isolated from the methanolic bark extract by droplet counter‐current chromatography (DCC). The structure of the active compounds has been determined as sarsapogenin‐O‐β‐D‐xylopyranosyl‐(1 → 2)‐β‐D‐galactopyranoside (2) and sarsapogenin‐O‐β‐D‐glucopyranosyl‐(1 → 2)‐β‐D‐galactopyranoside (3) .
