Abstract:
OBJECTIVETo study the chemical constituents of root of Actinidia macrosperma.
METHODChromatographic methods were used to isolate compounds from A. macrosperma and spectroscopic methods were used to identify the structures of the isolated compounds.
RESULTEight compounds were obtained and identified as 12-oleanene-2alpha, 3alpha, 24-triol (1), isotachioside (2), asiatic acid (3), catechin (4), epicatechin (5), ursolic acid (6), beta-daucosterol (7), beta-sitosterol (8).
CONCLUSIONAll these compounds were isolated from this plant for the first time, compound 1, 2 were obtained from this genus for the first time.
