Chemical constituents of n-butanol fraction from green walnut husks of Juglans mandshurica / 中草药

ABSTRACT

Objective To study the chemical constituents of the n-butanol part which extracted from green walnut husks of Juglans mandshurica with antitumor activity. Methods The chemical constituents from 95% EtOH extract of green walnut husks of J. mandshurica at room temperature were isolated and prepared by silica gel column, reversed-phase ODS, and pre-HPLC after n-butanol extraction, and their structures were elucidated by a variety of spectral and spectroscopic techniques. Results Eight compounds were isolated and identified as 4-hydroxy-4-(3’-hydroxyphenol) butanoic acid-4-O-β-D-glucopyranoside ethyl ester (1), 4-hydroxy- 4-(3’-hydroxyphenyl) butyric acid-4-O-β-D-glucopyranoside methyl ester (2), 1,4,8-trihydroxynaphthalene-1-O-β-D-glucopyranoside (3), 1,4,8-trihydroxy-3-naphthoic acid ethyl ester-1-O-β-D-glucopyranoside (4), (4S)-4,5,8-trihydroxy-α-tetralone-4-O-β-D- glucopyranoside (5), (4S)-4,5,8-trihydroxy-α-tetralone-5-O-β-D-[6’-O-(3″,4″,5″-trihydroxybenzoyl)] glucopyranoside (6), (4S)-4- hydroxy-α-tetralone-4-O-β-D-(6’-O-4’’-hydroxylbenzoyl)-glucopyranoside (7), and (4S)-4,5-dihydroxy-α-tetralone-4-O-β-D-(6’-O- 4’’-hydroxylbenzoyl)-glucopyranoside (8). Conclusion Compound 1 named juglanoside P and compound 2 namded juglanoside Q are both new compounds.
