Abstract:
OBJECTIVETo study the chemical constituents of Alpinia jianganfeng (Zingiberaceae) distributed in Sichuan province.
METHODChromatography and spectral analyses were used to isolate the constituents and elucidate their structure.
RESULTFour compounds were isolated from the rhizome of A. jianganfeng and elucidated as kaempferol-3-O-glucuronide(1), docosanoic acid(2), 3-hydroxy-stigmast-5-en-7-one(3) and beta-sitosterol(4).
CONCLUSIONAll these compounds were obtained from this plant for the first time.
