Bioactivity | Protoescigenin is the main aglycone of horse chestnut saponin mixture known as escin. Protoescigenin is selected as substrate for exploratory chemistry towards selective protection, followed by propargyl ether formation and subsequent condensation with azido-monosaccharides, to obtain novel triazole linked conjugates of the triterpene[1]. |
