Abstract:
Objective To investigate the chemical constituents in the leaves of Camellia chrysantha. Methods The chemical constituents were separated and purified by silica gel, Sephadex LH-20 column chromatography, recrystallization, preparative HPLC and so on. Their structures were determined by physical constants and spectral analyses. Results Ten compounds were isolated and identified as 3,4-methylenedioxy-3′-O-methyl-4′-O-(6′-O-acetyl-glucoside) ellagic acid (1), oleanolic acid (2), α-spinasteryl-3- O-β-D-glycoside (3), n-dotriacontanol (4), okicamelliaside (5), 6-hydroxy-kaempferol-3-O-β-D-glucopyranoside (6), 3,4-O,O- methylidyne-ellagic acid (7), ellagic acid-4-O-β-D-glucopyranoside (8), 3,4-methylenedioxy-3'-O-methyl-4'-O-glucoside ellagic acid (9), and p-(hydroxymethyl) phenol 5-O-β-D-glucopyranosyl (1→2)-β-D-(4-O-p-coumaryl)-glucopyranoside (10). Conclusion Compound 1 is a new ellagic acid named camellia A. Compounds 4—10 are obtained from this plant for the first time.
