RESUMEN
Objective To study the chemical constituents of Epimedium brevicornum.Methods Compounds were isolated with various chromatographic techniques,their structures were elucidated by physicochemical methods and spectral analysis.Results Ten compounds were obtained and identified as p-nitroethylphenol(Ⅰ),salidroside(Ⅱ),5,7,4'-trihydroxy-8,3'-diprenylflavone(Ⅲ),kaempferol-3-O-?-L-dirhamnoside(Ⅳ),baohuoside-Ⅰ(Ⅴ),sagittatoside B(Ⅵ),2″-O-rhamnosylicariside Ⅱ(Ⅶ),7,3',4',5'-tetrahydroxyflavanol(Ⅷ),desmethylicaritin(Ⅸ),and 1-O-?-glucopyransosyl-1,4-dihydroxy-2-(3'-hydroxy-3'-methylbutyl)benzene(Ⅹ).Conclusion Compounds Ⅰ,Ⅱ,Ⅳ,and Ⅹ are isolated and identified from the plants of Epimedium L.for the first time and compound Ⅵ is isolated from the title plant for the first time.
