Chemical constituents of Periploca forrestii / 中国中药杂志

ABSTRACT

The chemical constituents of Periploca forrestii were studied by means of macroporous resin, silica gel, ODS column chromatography and PHPLC. Nine compounds were isolated from this plant. By using ESI-MS and NMR, the structures of the nine compounds were determined as scopoletin (1), trans-3, 4-methylenedioxycinnamyl alcohol (2), syringaresinol (3), syringaresinol 4-0-beta-D-glucopyranoside (4), 6'-0-(E)-feruloylsucrose (5), loliolide (6), 4-hydroxy-3-methoxyl-benzaidehyde (7), delta5-pregnene-3beta, 17alpha, 20alpha-triol (8) and delta5-pregnene-3 beta, 17alpha, 20 alpha-triol-20-0-beta-D-canaropyranoside (9), respectively. Compounds 1, 2 and 5-7 are isolated from Periplocagenus for the first time.
