RESUMO
AIM To study the chemical constituents from Gentianella acuta (Michx.) Hulten.METHODS The 30％ and 90％ ethanol fractions of 70％ ethanol extract from G.acuta were isolated and purified by silica,ODS and preparative HPLC column,then the structures of obtained compounds were identified by spectral data.RESULTS Nine compounds were isolated and identified as sinenoside Ⅰ (1),(+)-lariciresinol-4,4'-0-bis-β-D-glucopyranoside (2),(+)-8-hydroxylariciresinol-4'-O-β-D-glucopyranoside (3),(+)-lariciresinol-4-O-3-D-glucopyranoside (4),(7S,8R)-erythro-7,9,9'-trihydroxy-3,3'-dimethoxy-8-O-4'-neolignan-4-O-β-D-glucopyranoside (5),(7S,8R)-erythro-4,9,9'-trihydroxy-3,3'-dimethoxy-8-O-4'-neolignan-7-O-β-D-glucopyranoside (6),(7S,8R)-erythro-4,7,9-trihydroxy-3,3'-dimethoxy-8-O-4'-neolignan-9'-O-β-D-glucopyranoside (7),balanophonin (8),urolignoside (9).CONCLUSION Compounds 2-9 are isolated from genus Gentianella for the first time.
