Abstract:
OBJECTIVETo study the chemical constituents of Polygala tenuifolia.
METHODIsolations were performed on various chromatography columns and structure elucidations were aided by spectral data and chemical property analyses.
RESULTFour compounds were isolated from the roots of P. tenuifolia. Their structures were identified as sibiricose A5 (1), sibiricose A6 (2), tenuifoliside A (3) and 3',6-disinapoyl sucrose (4).
CONCLUSIONCompounds 1 and 2 were isolated from this plant for the first time.
