Abstrakt: Albiziahexoside ( 1 ), a new hexaglycosylated saponin, was isolated from leaves of Albizzia lebbeck . Saponin 1 , which is an analog of cytotoxic albiziatrioside A ( 2 ), did not show cytotoxicity. However, 1 is a potential source of 2 and related bioactive saponins for medicinal use because leaves, which can be regenerated after collection, contain 1 in substantial quantity.
