Abstract:
OBJECTIVETo study the chemical constituents from the roots of Distylium myricoides.
METHODThe chemical constituents were isolated and separated with chromatographic techniques, and structures were identified by spectroscopic methods.
RESULTEight phenolic compounds were isolated and identified as: 4-hydroxy-2-methoxyphenol 1-O-beta-D-(6'-O-galloyl) glucopyranoside (1), 4-hydroxy-3-methoxy-phenol 1-O-beta-D-(6'-O-galloyl) glucopyranoside (2), 3,4,5-tri methoxyphenol 1-O-beta-D-(6'-O-galloyl) glucopyranoside (3), 1,2,3,4,6-penta-O-galloyl-beta-D-glucopyranoside (4), methyl gallate (5), ethyl gallate (6), 3,4-dihydroxybenzoic acid (7), gallic acid (8).
CONCLUSIONAll compounds were isolated from the genus Distylium for the first time.
