The chemical components of the Chinese crude drug "Pai-Wei, " dried root of Cynanchum atratum BUNGE (Asclepiadaceae), have been studied. Five new oligoglycosides named cynatratoside-A (3), -B (4), -C (6), -D (8), and -E (9) were isolated by column chromatography and their structures were determined on the basis of chemical and spectral evidence.
