Abstract:
OBJECTIVETo investigate the chemical constituents of Epimedium brevicornum.
METHODThe chemical constituents were isolated by using silica gel column chromatography and preparative TLC. The structures were identified on the basis of physical-chemical constants and spectral data.
RESULTFive compounds were isolated and identified as hyperoside, icariin, epimedin B, epimedin C, inositol.
CONCLUSIONCompound I and III - V were isolated from the plant for the first time.
