Three new sphingosine‐type glucocerebrosides, CE‐2b ( 1 ), CE‐2c ( 2 ) and CE‐2d ( 3 ), were isolated by means of highperformance liquid chromatography (HPLC) from a cerebroside molecular species (CE‐2) which was obtained from the less polar fraction of the methanol extract of the sea cucumber Cucumaria echinata . The structures of these cerebrosides were determined on the basis of chemical and spectroscopic evidences.
