Abstract:
OBJECTIVETo study the chemical constituents of the flowers of Apocynum venetum.
METHODChromatographic methods were used to isolate compounds from the flowers of A. venetum and spectral methods were used to identify the structures of the isolated compounds.
RESULTSeven compounds, kaempferol (I), quercetin (II), quercetin-3-O-beta-D-glucoside (III), kaempferol-3-O-beta-D-glucoside (IV), vanillic acid (V), baimaside (VI), daucosterol (III), were isolated from the flowers of A. venetum.
CONCLUSIONCompound I, V, VI, VII were obtained from this plant for the first time.
