RESUMEN
Nineteen compounds were isolated from the whole plants of Aconitum tanguticum by means of various of chromatographic techniques such as silica gel, ODS, sephadex LH-20 and preparative HPLC, and their structures were elucidated as syringin (1), vanillic acid-4-O-beta-D-allopyranoside (2), (E) -ferulic acid 4-O-beta-D-allopyranoside (3), (E) -ferulic acid-4-O-beta-glucopysoside (4), (E) -sinapic acid-4-O-beta-glucopyranoside (5), (E) 4-hydroxycinnamyl alcohol 4-O-beta-D-glucopyranoside (6), quercetin 3-O-alpha-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1 --> 2) -[alpha-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1 --> 6)] -beta-D-galactopyranoside-7-O-alpha-L-rhamnopyranoside (7), kaempferol 3-O-alpha-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1 --> 2) - [alpha-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1 --> 6)] -beta-D-galactopyranside-7-O-alpha-L-rhamnopyranoside (8), quercetin 3-O-alpha-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1 --> 6) -beta-D-glucopyranoside-7-O-alpha-L-rhamnopyranoside (9), kaempferol 3-O-[beta-D-glucopyranosyl-(1 --> 3)-(4-O-trans-p-coumaroyl) ] -alpha-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1 --> 6) -beta-D-galactopyranside-7-O-alpha-L-rhamnopyranoside (10), quercetin 3-O- [beta-D-glucopyranosyl-(1 --> 3 ) -(4-O-trans-p-coumaroyl)] -alpha-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1--> 6) -beta-D-galactopyranoside-7-O-alpha-L-rhamnopyranoside (11), salidroside (12), 2-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl) ethanol 1-O-beta-D-glucopyranoside (13), (7S, 8R) -dehydrodiconiferyl alcohol-9'-O-beta-D-glucopyranoside (14), citrusin B (15), heteratisine (16), tanaconitine (17), shanzhiside methyl ester (18) and icariside B1 (19). Except compounds 4, 13, 16 and 17, the other compounds were separated from the species for the first time.
