ABSTRACT
Objective: To study the chemical constituents from the branches and leaves of Viburnum sargentii collected at Mountain Tai. Methods: The chemical constituents were isolated and purified by chromatographic methods, including silica gel, ODS, Sephadex LH-20 columns, and RP HPLC. The structures of the isolated compounds were identified by ESI-MS, 1D-NMR, and 2D-NMR data analyses, and compared with the literature data. Results: Thirteen compounds were obtained from the 95% ethanol extract of branches and the leaves of V. sargentii, and determined as α-amyrin (1), uvaol (2), 3α-ursolic acid (3), 11,12-dehydroursolic acid lactone (4), 3-O-acetyloleanolic aldehyde (5), oleanolic acid (6), betulinic acid (7), magnolin (8), (+)-eudesmin (9), (-)-epieudesmin (10), vibsanol (11), 3,4'-dimethoxylvibsanol (12), and α-asarone (13), respectively. Conclusion: Compound 12 (3,4'- dimethoxylvibsanol) is a new natural product, and compounds 1-11 and 13 are isolated from V. sargentii for the first time.
ABSTRACT
To study the non-alkaloid constituents from the stems and leaves of Ochrosia borbonica. The chemical constituents were separated and purified by silica gel, Sephadex LH-20, ODS column chromatographies, and preparative HPLC. Their structures were determined by physicochemical properties, spectral data, as well as comparison with the data in literature. Fifteen compounds were isolated from the petroleum ether fraction of 70% ethanol extract from the stems and leaves of O. borbonica, and identified as lupeol (1), lupine ketone (2), betulinic alcohol (3), betulinic acid (4), ursolic acid (5), 2α, 3β-dihydroxy-ursolic acid (6), 11, 12-dehydroursolic acid lactone (7), β-amyrin (8), oleanolic lactone (9), alphitolic acid (10), friedelin (11), cholesterol (12), 24R-ethyl-5α-cholestane-3β, 6α-diol (13), stigmast-7-en-3β-ol (14), and β-sitosterol (15). All the compounds are isolated from the plants of Ochrosia Juss. for the first time.
