RESUMO
This study was aimed to isolate and characterize of chemical constituents in a traditional Mongolian medicine HERBA CLEMATIS. Normal and reverse phase coloumn chromatography, gel filtration chromatography sephadex LH-20, and preparative HPLC were used for isolation and purification compounds from the water extraction of the arial part ofC. aethusaefoliaTurcz. The planar structures and spatial configurations of isolated compounds were identified by high resolution MS, 1D and 2D NMR, and other spectrographic methods. The chemical research on the Mongolian medicine results 6 compounds, dihydrodehydrodiconiferyl alcohol (1), syringaresinol (2), pinoresinol (3), epi-pinoresinol (4), lirioresinol B dimethyl ether (5) and loliolide (6). All the compounds were isolated from this plant for the first time.
