By a combination of gas-chromatography and gas-chromatography/mass spectrum, the chemical compositions of volatile oil of Co Lao (Eupatorium odoratum –L.) collected from Nghe An (NA) and Ha Tinh (HT) provinces were identified. Volatile oil contents from NA sample was 0,28%, HT 0,25%. The samples have got yellow color, lighter than water, characterized odor. Volatile oil is a mixture of 60 compounds,-39 in NA samples and 37 in HT. The main components of volatile oil are geijerene, germacrene-D and alpha pinene

By gaz chronatography and gaz chronatography in combining with mass spectrum, the isolated essential oil of Man Tuoi Trang in Thach Thanh district of Thanh Hoa province was analysed. Results showed a content of 0,02% of volatile oil (in fresh sample) and its composition was determind. There were 67 compounds, among them 40 were nominated, with the main compositions were beta-caryophylen (21,2%), methylthymyl ether (13,7%), thymohydro quinonediethyl ether (10,2%)

OBJECTIVETo develop a GC method to determine the content of caryophyllene in Eupatorium fortune.

METHODThe samples were determined on a DB-1701 (0.32 mm x 30 m, 0.25 microm) quartz capillary column. And the sample was extracted with ethanol by the ultrasonic assisted extraction.

RESULTThe calibration curve of caryophyllene is liner over the range of 0.002-2.0 g x L (-1) (R2 = 1). The recovery was from 96.76% to 104.15%.

CONCLUSIONThe method is accurate, simple with a good reproducibility. It can be used to control the quality of E. fortune.

The potential quality markers( Q-markers) of Eupatorium lindleyanum were studied with analytic hierarchy process(AHP)-entropy weight method(EWM) and network pharmacological method. Based on the concept of Q-markers of traditional Chinese medicine, AHP-EWM was employed to quantitatively identify the Q-markers of E. lindleyanum. AHP method was applied to the weight analysis of the validity, testability, and specificity of the first-level indexes, and EWM method was used to analyze the secondlevel indexes supported by literature and experimental data. At the same time, based on the theory and method of network pharmacology, the component-target-disease-efficacy network of E. lindleyanum was built, and the components most closely related to the efficacy of resolving phlegm and relieving cough and asthma were screened out. Through the integrated analysis of the results obtained with AHP-EWM and network pharmacological method, 13 compounds including rutin, quercetin, nepetin, cirsiliol, luteolin, hyperoside,isoquercitrin, kaempferol, caffeic acid, eupalinolide K, eupalinolide A, eupalinolide B, and eupalinolide C were comprehensively identified as the potential Q-markers of E. lindleyanum. The results provide a basis for the quality control of E. lindleyanum.

OBJECTIVEStudy on the flavonoids from the air part of Eupatorium lindleyanum.

METHODAlcohol percolation, silica gel column chromatography and re-crystallization et al.

RESULTJaceosidin, kaempferol, quceritin, astragalin, trifolin and hypersoide were isolated from E. lindleyanum. Their structures were elucidated on the basis of spectral evidence.

CONCLUSIONJaceosidin, kaempferol, quceritin, astragalin and trifolin were isolated from E. lindleyanum for the first time.

To study chemical constituents of Eupatorium lindleyanum. Ethyl acetate extractive fractions were separated with silica gel and Sephadex LH-20 by column chromatography, and their structures were identified on the basis of spectroscopic analysis and chemical evidence. Sixteen compounds were separated and identified as scopoletin (1), 6, 7-dimethylesculetin (2), nepetin (3), eupatrin (4), luteolin (5), isoquerecitrin (6), jaceosidin (7), quceritin (8), kaempferol (9), rutin (10), cirsiliol (11), taraxasterylacetate (12), pseudotaraxasteryl acetate (13), pseudotaraxasterol (14), butanoic acid (15) and n-hexadecanoic acid (16). Of them, compounds 1-6 and 11, 13 and 15 were separated from this plant for the first time.
