Abstract:
Objective To study the chemical constituents from the roots of Ricinus communis. Methods The chemical constituents were isolated and purified by silica gel column, and spectroscopic methods were used for the structural elucidation. Results Fourteen compounds were isolated and identified as ricintriglyceride (1), 3-acetoxyl-acid (2), stigmasterol (3), ricinine (4), methyl-3-dihydroxy benzoate (5), gallic acid (6), aleuritic acid (7), ethyl brevifolincarboxylate (8), 9-hydroxytridecyl docosanoate (9), lupeol (10), luteolin (11), palmitic acid (12), octacosanol (13), and octadecane (14). Conclusion Compound 1 is a new compound, named ricintriglyceride, and compounds 2, 3, 5-12, and 14 are isolated from the plants of Ricinus L. for the first time.
