Based on the detailed analysis of their 1D and 2D NMR spectra and chemical evidence, their structures were determined as 1β-O-acetyl-spirost-5,25(27)-dien-3α-yl-O-β-d-glucopyranoside (1), (25S)-1β,2β,5β-trihydroxy-spirostane-3β-yl-O-β-d-glucopyranoside (2) and (25S)-1β,2β-dihydroxy-5β-spirostane-3β-yl-O-β-d-xylopyranoside (3), respectively.
