ABSTRACT
Objective To study the chemical constituents of Pinus yunnanensis. Methods The whole plant of air-dried P. yunnanensis was extracted with methnol. The methnol extract was suspended in H2O and extracted with petroleum, ethyl acetate, and n-BuOH, successively. The compounds were isolated and purified by column chromatography from the petroleum and ethyl acetate fractions, and identified based on spectral analyses (MS, 1D- and 2D-NMR, IR, UV). Results Fourteen compounds were isolated from P. yunnanensis and characterized as (7R,8R)-7,8-dihydro-3'-hydroxyl-7-(4-hydroxyl-3-methoxyphenyl)-8-hydroxymethyl-1'-benzofuranpropanol- 4-O-(3-O-methyl-α-L-rhamnopyranoside) (1), pinosylvine (2), stigmast-4-en-3-one (3), kaempferol (4), isopimarinol (5), quercetin (6), pinocembrin (7), taxifilin (8), 3-hydroxyl-5-methoxy-stilbene (9), 5-O-β-D-glucopyranosyl-thymoquinol (10), icariside E4 (11), 3,4-dimethoxyphenyl-1-O-β-D-glucopyranoside (12), schizandriside (13), and β-stitosterol (14). Conclusion Compounds 1, 3-7, and 10-13 are obtained from Pinus yunnanensis Lamb. for the first time.
ABSTRACT
Objective: To optimize the purification technology of salidroside with macroporous adsorption resin. Methods: The absorption and elution conditions of salidroside purificatin by various macroporous adsorption resins were investigated with the content of salidroside as index. Results: SP-825 type macroporous adsorption resin was the best choice for the purification of salidroside. The optimized parameters were as follows: the content of salidroside at 1.713-2.570 g/mL, eluting solvent of 10% aqueous ethanol, volume flow at 2 BV/h, and eluant volume at 30 BV. Conclusion: SP-825 type macroporous adsorption resin could significantly increase the purity of salidroside with the advantage of high absorption, high elution rate, low cost, environment friendly, and being applicable for the production in large scale.
