- Abstract: OBJECTIVE: To study the chemical constituents of Citrus aurantium L. METHODS: Chromatographic techniques were employed for isolation and purification of the constituents and their structures were determined by spectral analysis and chemical evidence. RESULTS: Sixteen compounds were obtained and identified as pyrrolezanthine-6-methyl ether (1), methyl 3-hydroxy-4-methoxybenzoate (2), 3-hydroxy-4-methoxybenzoic acid (3), methyl 3,4-dihydroxybenzoate (4), methyl 3-(4-acetoxyphenyl)propanoate (5), 4-hydroxybenzoic acid (6), scopoletin (7), 5-(hydroxymethyl)furan-2-carbaldehyde (8), hesperidin (9), naringin (10), gossypetin-8,3'-dimethylether-3-O-β-D-galactoside (11), 2-homoeriodictyol-7-O-β-D-glucopyranoside (12), 6-demethoxytangeretin (13), naringenin (14), 5,6,7,8,4'-pentamethoxyflavone (tangeretin) (15), and 5-O-desmethylnobiletin (16). CONCLUSION: Compounds 124811-13 are for the first time obtained from Citrus.
