The novel androstane-type steroidal glycoside 1 was isolated from the roots of Asparagus curillus Buch.- Ham. ex Roxb. Its structure was elucidated as (2 α,3 β,5 α,17 β)-17-(1-methoxyethoxy)-17-methylandrostane-2,3-diol 3-( β- D-digitoxopyranoside) by means of chemical and advanced spectral analysis.
