Abstract:
OBJECTIVETo study the chemical constituents in roots of Heracleum rapula.
METHODThe constituents were isolated by column chromatography on silica gel and ODS, and identified by spectroscopic methods.
RESULTEight compounds, xanthotoxol (I), 8-geranyloxypsoralen (II), (+)-marmesin (III), beta-sitosterol (IV), stigmasterol (V), oleanolic acid (VI), ferulic (VII), scopoletin (VIII) were isolated and identified.
CONCLUSIONCompounds IV, V, VI, VII, VIII were isolated from this plant for the first time.
