Abstract:
Objective: To study chemical components of rhizome of Arundo donax, a folk medicine. Methods: Using different methods such as chromatography and recrystallization purification to get chemical components, and the structures were identified by physical and chemical properties and spectral data. Results: Twenty-three compounds were isolated and identified as following: hexadecanoic acid (1), n-docosane (2), myristic acid glycerides (3), 5,6-epoxy-22,24-ergosta-8(14),22-diene-3,7-diol (4), 5,6-epoxy-22,24-ergosta-8(9),22-diene-3,7-diol (5), 5,8-epidioxy-22,24-ergosta-6,22-dien-3-ol (6), stigmast-4-ene-3,6-dione (7), 6,9-epoxy-ergosta-7,22-dien-3-ol (8), stigmast-22-en-3,6, 9-triol (9), 3,4,5-trimethoxyphenol (10), 2,6-dimethoxy-1,4-quinone (11), sinapaldehyde (12), hydroxycinnamic acid (13), β-sitostenone (14), α-asarone (15), 4-dodecylbenzaldehyde (16), β-sitosterol (17), α-spinasterol (18), p-hydroxybenzaldehyde (19), ursolic acid (20), N-acetyltryptamine (21), daucosterol (22), and (-)-syringaresinol (23). Conclusion: Compouds 1-16 and 18-23 are isolated from the plant in genus Arundo L. for the first time.
