Diacylglycerylgalactosides from Arisaema amurense

Previously undescribed 1,2-O-diacyl-3-O-beta-D-galactopyranosyl glycerols and 1,2-O-diacyl-3-O-[alpha-D-galactopyranosyl-(1"-->6')-O-beta-D- galactopyranosyl] glycerols were isolated as single components from Arisaema amurense. The cytotoxicities of these compounds against P388 and DLD-1 are described.
