RESUMEN
OBJECTIVE: To study the structure of the polysaccharides constituents in the fruits of Siraitia grosvenorii (Swingle) C. Jeffrey. METHODS: SGPS2 was purified by DEAE-cellulose and Sephadex G-200 column chromatography, the component and structure of SGPS2 were analyzed on the basis of spectral and chemical studies by HPLC, IR analysis, partial hydrolysis with acid, methylation analysis, GC and 13C-NMR. RESULTS: The molecular weight of SGPS2 was 650 000. Polysaccharide was composed of L- made up of (1 --> 2, 4) linked rhamnose, (1 --> 4) linked rhamnose residues in main chain; and (1 --> 2) linked rhamnose, (1 --> 3) linked rhamnose in side chains. Terminal residues attached main chain to rhamnose. CONCLUSION: SGPS2 was composed of rhamnose and curonic acid.

Gaultheriadiolide (1), a new compound, together with the known dauosterol (2), ginkgetin (3), myricetin (4), 6-ethyl-5-hydroxy-2,7-dimethoxy-1,4-naphthoquinone (5), ursolic acid (6), methyl salicylate 2-O-beta-D-xylosyl(1-->6)beta-D-glucopyranoside (7), and methyl salicylate 2-O-beta-D-glucopyranoside (8) were isolated from Gaultheria yunnanensis. The structure was elucidated on the basic of spectral analysis, especially 1D and 2D NMR. Primary bioassays showed that compound 1 had medium cytotoxic activity against HEp-2 and HepG2 Cells, with IC(50) of 23.337 microM and 29.4497 microM, respectively.
