The seven new triterpenoid saponins 1 – 7 were isolated from the roots of Gypsophila paniculata L. Their structures were established by 1 D ‐ and 2D‐NMR techniques, HR‐MS, and acid hydrolysis. The isolated compounds include 3,28‐ O ‐bidesmosides with or without a 4‐methoxycinnamoyl group (see 1 vs. 2 and 3 ), and 3‐ O ‐monoglucosides 4 – 7 . All isolated saponins 1 – 7 and their aglycones were evaluated for their α ‐glucosidase inhibition activity. Compound 1 showed inhibitory activity against yeast α ‐glucosidase with an IC 50 value of 100.9±3.3 μ M , whereas compounds 2 – 7 were inactive.
