Abstract:
Study on chemical components of Fissistigma capitatum Merr. ex Li (scientific name was defined by Bachelor Ngo Van Trại, National Institute of Medicinal Materials) collected at Sa Pa in June 2003. 600g of dried and grinded leaves and branches were leached with methanol:water (95:5) at room temperature. Methanol solvent was distilled at decreased pressure. The remained fluid was extracted many times with n-hexane, ethyl acetate and butanol. N-hexane was vacuum-evaporated, which collected 11.2g sediment. N-hexane sediment fluid was refined by silica gel chromatographic, which collected compounds 1 and 2. The structure of compound 1 was taraxerol, compound 2 was 16-hentriacontanone with white crystal form when comparing with document data. This compound named palmitone and previous isolated from the leaf of Annona diversifolia
