Abstract:
OBJECTIVETo study the water-soluble chemical constituents from the fruits of Phellodendron chinense var. glabriusculum.
METHODChemical constituents were purified by chromatographic methods and identified by spectroscopic analysis.
RESULTEight known compounds were obtained, whose structures were elucidated as sinapyl 9-O-beta-D-glucopyranoside (1), betulalbuside A (2), arbutin (3), adenosine (4), 3,5-dihydroxyphenethyl alcohol 3-O-beta-D-glucopyranoside (5), orcinol-3-O-beta-D-glucopyranoside (6), N-trans-p-coumaroyloctopamine (7), berberine (8) respectively.
CONCLUSIONCompounds 1-7 were obtained from Phellodendron chinense var. glabriusculum for the first time.
