ABSTRACT

ive] To isolate the active constituents with analgesic and antemetic actions from Rhizo-ma Alpiniae Officinarum. [Methods] Polyamide and silica gel column chromatography was used to isolate and extract the analgesic and antemetic constituents. The structure of compounds was identified by ultra violet spectroscopy, infrared spectroscopy, mass spectroscopy and nuclear magnetic resonance spectrosco-py. [ Results ] Galangin and kaempferide are identified as the analgesic and antemetic constituents. [Conclusion] Galangin can be used as the quality control for Rhizoma Alpiniae Officinarum.
