Abstract:
OBJECTIVETo study the chemical constituents in Gardenia jasminoides.
METHODThe constituents were isolated by column chromatography on silica gel and ODS, and identified by NMR, MS spectroscopic methods.
RESULTNine compounds, imperatorin (1), isoimperatorin (2), crocetin (3), 5-hydroxy-7, 3', 4', 5'-tetrainethoxyflavone (4), 2-methyl-3, 5-dihydroxychromone (5), sudan III (6), geniposide (7), crocin (8), crocin-3 (9) were isolated and identified.
CONCLUSIONCompounds 1-6 were isolated from this plant for the first time.
