Abstract:
AIM:To study the chemical constituents in the flowers and fruits of Rabdosia excisa.
METHODS:The compounds were isolated and purified by silica gel column chromatography and their structures were identified by spectroscopic methods.
RESULTS:Sixteen compounds isolated from the flowers and fruits of this plant were identified as: stigm asterol (I), α-amyrin palmitate (II), ursolic acid (III), 2α, 3α, 19-trihydroxy-urs-12-en-28-oic acid (IV), 2α-hydroxyursolic acid (V), maslinic acid (VI), isodonal (VII), maoyecrystal E (VIII), kamebakaurin (XI), macrocalyxin G (X), epinodosinol (XI), rabdosichuanin C (XII), kamebacetal A (XIII), oridonin (XIV), enmenol-glucoside (XV), and lasiononin (XVI).
CONCLUSION:All the constituents were found in Rabdosia excisa for the first time, except constituents III, IX, XII and XIV.
