Abstract:
OBJECTIVETo study the chemical constituents of Geranium eristemon.
METHODChromatography and spectral analysis were used to isolate the constituents and elucidate their structures.
RESULTFive compounds were isolated from acetone extract of the whole grass of G. eristemon, and identified as beta-sitosterol, protocatechuic acid, myricetin, kaempferol-7-O-alpha-L-arabifuranoside and kaempferol-3-O-alpha-L-arabifuranoside.
CONCLUSIONkaempferol-7-O-alpha-L-arabifuranoside and kaempferol-3-O-alpha-L-arabifuranoside were isolated from G. genus for the first time.
