RESUMO
Chemical investigation of Imperata cylindrica led to the isolation of thirteen compounds using various chromatographic techniques. The structure of these compounds were identified as: three phenylpropanoids, 1-(3,4,5-trimethoxyphenyl)-1,2,3-propanetriol ( 1 ), 1-O-p-coumaroylglycerol (2), 4-methoxy-5-methyl coumarin-7-O-beta-D-glucopyranoside (3); four organic acids, 4-hydroxybenzene carboxylic acid(4), 3,4-dihydroxybenzoic acid (5), vanillic acid (6), 3, 4-dihydroxybutyric acid (7); one phenolic compound, salicin (8); and five triterpenes, namely, arundoin (9), cylindrin (10), fernenol (11), simiarenol (12), glutinone (13) by their physicochemical properties and spectral data analysis. Among them, compounds 1-8 were isolated from the genus Imperata for the first time.

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To study the chemical constituents from the aerial parts of Gelsemium elegans.</p><p><b>METHOD</b>Compounds were isolated and purified by repeated column chromatography, as well as semiprep arative HPLC, and their structures were identified by physicochemical properties and spectroscopic methods, such as NMR and MS.</p><p><b>RESULT</b>Sixteen compounds were obtained and identified from G. elegans, including nine alkaloids: koumine (1), gelsenicine (2), 19-(Z)-akuammidine (3), gelsemoxonine(4), gelsemin (5), gelsevirine (6), humantenine (7), 11-methoxygelsemamide (8) and gelegamine D (9). Three megastigmane glycosides: (3R, 5S, 6S, 7E, 9R)-megastigman-7-ene-3, 5, 6, 9-tetrol-9-O-beta-D-glucopyranoside (10), (6R, 7E, 9R)-9-hydroxy-4, 7-megastigmadien-3-one-9-O-[alpha-L-arabinopyranosyl-(1 --> 6)-beta-D-glucopyranoside] (11) and (6S, 7E, 9R) -6, 9-dihydroxy-4, 7-megastigmadien-3-one-9-O-[alpha-L-arabinopyranosyl-(1 --> 6) -beta-D-glucopyranoside] (12). Two flavone C-glycosides: orientin (13) and isorientin (14); one iridoid glycoside, sweroside (15) and one fructoside, n-butyl-alpha-D-fructofuranoside (16).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Compounds 10-16 were isolated from the genus Gelsemium for the first time.</p>
