Chemical constituents from Hosta plantaginea flowers / 中成药

ABSTRACT

AIM To study the chemical constituents from Hosta plantaginea (Lam.) Aschers flowers.METHODS The aqueous extract of H.plantaginea was isolated and purified by Sephadex LH-20 and HPLC column,then the structures of obtained compounds were identified by spectral data.RESULTS Twelve compounds were isolated and identified as 4-hydroxybenzaldehyde (1),4-hydroxylacetophenone (2),5,7-dimethoxy-8-rnethyl-4'-hydroxyflavan (3),5,7-dimethoxy-4'-hydroxyflavan (4),epicatechin (5),catechin (6),epigallocatechin (7),gallocatechin (8),coumaric acid (9),phenethyl-O-β-D-glucoside (10),acetophenone-4-O-β-D-glucoside (11),2-hydroxyl-6-methoxyacetophenone-4-O-β-D-glucoside (12),3,4-dihydroxycinnamyl alcohol-3-O-glucoside (13).CONCLUSION All the compounds are isolated from this plant for the first time.
