Abstract:
OBJECTIVETo isolate and determine the chemical constituents from Ranunculus sceleratus.
METHODSix compounds were isolated and purified by extraction and different kinds of column chromatography. The structures were determined on the basis of extensive spectral analysis such as EI-MS, 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, DEPT and NOEDS.
RESULTThe structures were elucidated as stigmasta-4-ene-3,6-dione I, stigmasterol II, isoscopoletin III, scoparone IV, protocatechuic aldehyde V and protocatechuic acid VI, respectively.
CONCLUSIONCompound I, III, IV, V and VI were isolated from R. genus for the first time.
