Two novel compounds from Ardisia punctata Lindl / 药学学报

ABSTRACT

To study the chemical constituents of Ardisia punctata,compounds were isolated with a combination of multi-chromatography.Their structures were determined on the basis of spectral analysis and comparison to those of the known compounds.A 1,4-benzoquinone derivative and a alkylphenol were isolated from the petroleum ether extract of the roots of Ardisia punctata.Their structures were elucidated as 2-tridecyl-3-[(2-tridecyl-4-acetoxy-6-methoxy)-phenoxyl]-6-methoxy-1,4-benzoquinone (1) and 2-methoxy-4-hydroxy-6-tridecyl-phenyl acetate (2).The two compounds are both new.
