Abstract:
Objective: To investigate the chemical constituents of Abacopteris penangiana. Methods: Compounds were separated and purified by column chromatography with silica gel, RP C18, and Sephadex LH-20. The structures of the obtained compounds were elucidated on the basis of physicochemical properties and spectroscopic methods. Results: Seven compounds were purified and their structures were identified as: (7′Z)-3-O-(3, 4-dihydroxy phenylethenyl)-caffeic acid (1), cafeicin B (2), matteucinol (3), protocatechuin acid (4), p-methoxybenzoic acid (5), β-sitosterol (6), and β-daucosterol (7). Conclusion: Compound 1 is a new compound named abacopteric acid, and compounds 2-7 are isolated from the plant for the first time.
