Two new triterpene lactones, polysperlactones A ( 2 ) and B ( 3 ), were isolated from the stems of Kadsura polysperma , together with the known compounds heteroclitalactone D ( 1 ) and schisanlactone E ( 4 ). Their structures were elucidated by spectroscopic methods, including 2D‐NMR and HR‐MS techniques. The configuration of 1 was confirmed by X‐ray analysis. Compounds 2 and 3 are members of a rare class of 3,4‐secolanostane metabolites with ring‐expanded or cyclized structures, respectively.
