RESUMO
Objective: To study on the chemical constituents from the rhizome of Smilax davidiana. Methods: The compounds were separated and purified by sephadex LH-20 column chromatography and high performance liquid chromatography. Their structures were identified by spectroscopic analysis and comparison with literatures. Results: Twenty compounds were isolated and identified as aromadendrin7-O-β-D-glucopyranoside (1), dalbergin (2), 3,5,7,4′-tetrahydroxyflavanone-7-O-β-D-glucopyranoside (3), kaempferol-7-O-β-D-glucopyranoside (4), quercetin-7-O-β-D-glucopyranoside (5), quercetin-3-O-β-L-rhamnopyranoside (6), 4,6- dihydroxy-2-O-(β-D-glucopyranosyl)-acetophenone (7), 3,5-dihydroxy-4-O-(β-D-glucopyranosyl) acetophenone (8), 2,4,6- trihydroxy-acetophenone-4-O-β-D-glucopyranoside (9), 2,4,6-trihydroxylacetophenone-2,4-di-O-β-D-glucopyranoside (10), epicatechin (11), latifolin (12), 3′-O-(E-4-coumaroyl)-quinic acid (13), 5-O-caffeoylquinic acid butyl ester (14), 5,5′- dimethoxylariciresinol 4′-O-β-D-glucopyranoside (15), 1-cerotoylglycerol (16), cinchonain Ib (17), adenosine (18), resveratrol (19), and 3,4,5-trimethoxyphenyl-1-β-D-glucopyranoside (20). Conclusion: Compounds 4—9, and 12—16 are isolated from Smilax genus for the first time, and compounds 1—3, 17, and 18 are from S. davidiana for the first time.
