RESUMEN
OBJECTIVE:To study the chemical constituents of Euonymus amygdalifolius.METHODS:Silica gel column chromatogram,gel column chromatogram,TLC and semi-preparative HPLC were adopted to isolate and purify ethanol extract from E.amygdalifolius.The structure of compounds was analyzed and identified according to physical and chemical properties,spectral data (mass spectrurn,hydrogen spectrum and carbon spectrum).RESULTS:Ten compounds were isolated from ethanol extract of aerial part of E.amygdalifolius,i.e.taraxerol (1),sophoradiol (2),taraxerone (3),sorghumol (4),heptaecanoic acid (5),octadecenoic acid (6),β-Sitosterol (7),daucosterol (8),epifriedelinol (9) and friedelin (10).CONCLUSIONS:Above compounds are all isolated from E.amygdalifolius for the first time;compounds 1,2,4,5,6 are isolated and obtained from Euonymus A.for the first time.The study lay a foundation for quality evaluation of E.amygdalifolius.
