Four new cholestane bisdesmosides have been isolated from the fresh bulbs of Ornithogalum thyrsoides. Their structures were determined by spectroscopic analysis and chemical evidence to be (22S)-5α-cholestane-1β,3β,16β,22-tetrol 1-O-α-L-rhamnopyranoside 16-O-β-D-glucopyranoside (1), (22S)-5α-cholest...
