Abstract:
Objective: To study the chemical constituents of Ledum palustre. Methods: Compounds were isolated from n-hexane fraction in the ethanol extract from L. palustre by silica gel column chromatography and HPLC. The structures of the chemical constituents were identified by analysis on their spectral data. Results: Thirteen compounds were isolated from n-hexane fraction in the ethanol extract from L. palustre and identified as euphol acetate (1), lanosta-8, 24-dien-3-one (2), taraxerol (3), labda-8(17), 14-dien-13-ol (4), (24S)-stigmast-4-en-3-one (5), euphol (6), isopimaric acid (7), larixyl acetate (8), 28-hydroxyl-lupenone (9), β-sitosterol (10), isocalamendiol (11), erythrodiol (12), and uvaol (13). Conclusion: Compounds 2, 4-9, 11, and 12 are first obtained from the plants of Ledum L.
