ABSTRACT
<p><b>AIM</b>To study the chemical constituents of Tripterygium wilfordii Hook. F.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Various column chromatographies with silica gel were used for the isolation and purification. The structures of compounds were established on the basis of its IR, MS, UV, 1H NMR, 13C NMR and HRMS, 1H-1H COSY, 1H-13C COSY and NOESY.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Four diterpenoids were isolated: 16-hydroxytriptolide (I), triptolidenol (II), tripdiolide (III), 2-epitripdiolide (IV).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Compound IV is a new diterpenoid.</p>

<p><b>AIM</b>To study the chemical composition of Tripterygirm wilfordii Hook. f.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Colunm chromatography was used to separate the chemical constituents. UV, IR, MS, HRMS, 1HNMR, 13CNMR (COM and OFR), 1H-1H COSY, 1H-13C COSY, NOESY and COLOC spectra were used to determine the structures of the isolated constituents.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Two sesquiterpene alkaloids were isolated and their structures were elucidated as wilforgine and wilfordlongine on the basis of spectral evidence.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Wilfordclonine is a new sesquiterpene alkaloid.</p>
