Abstract

AIMTo study the chemical constituents of the rhizome of Matteuccia struthiopteris (L.) The constituents were separated and purified by column chromatography with normal Todaro.

METHODSphase silica gel and Sephadex LH-20. Their structures were identified on the basis of physical and spectral data (MS, NMR, HMBC and HMQC).

RESULTSFour compounds were isolated and identified as 1-O-beta-D-gl ucopyranosyl-(2S,3R,4E, 8Z) -2-N-(2'-hydroxydocosanoyl) eicosasphinga-4,8-dienine (1), 1-O-beta-D-galactosyl-(6-->1)-alpha-D-galactosyl-2,3-O-dihexadecanoyl-glycerol (2), succinic acid (3), D-mannitol (4).

CONCLUSIONCompounds 1 and 2 are new compounds. Compounds 3 and 4 were isolated from this plant for the first time.
