ABSTRACT
Two new flavonoid glycosides were isolated from the aerial parts of Nervilia fordii by various chromatographies such as D101 macroporous resin, ODS and preparative HPLC chromatographic techniques. Their structures were elucidated as rhamnocitrin-3-O-β-glucopyranosyl-4'-O-β-galactosyl-(1→3)-glucopyranoside (1) and 7, 3'-di-O-methylquercetin-4'-O-[β-galactosyl-(1→3)-β-glucopyranosyl]-3-O-β-glucopyranoside (2) on the basis of extensive spectroscopic analyses, including 1D-, 2D-NMR, HR-ESI-MS and analytical hydrolysis.
ABSTRACT
To study the chemical constituents of Nervilia fordii (Hance) Schltr., various chromatographic methods were used, including D101 macroporous resin, silica gel, ODS and preparative HPLC chromatographic techniques. A new labdane diterpenoid glycoside named as nervilifordoside A was isolated from 60% EtOH extract of Nerviliafordii. The structure of compound 1 was elucidated as 12, 17-epoxy-3-hydroxy-17-methoxy-labdan-13-en-16, 15-olide 3-O-alpha-rhamnopyranosyl-(1 --> 2)-O-beta-glucopyranoside on the basis of HR-MS, 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopic data as well as chemical methods.
