ABSTRACT

Nine compounds were isolated from the n-butanol extract of the aerial parts of Polygala sibirica by various column chromatographic methods. Their structures were identified by MS and NMR spectroscopic data as sibiricaxanthone F (1), amentoflavone (2), linarin (3), zigu-glucoside I (4), 3, 6'-disinapoyl sucrose (5), tenuifoliside A (6), 2, 4, 4-trimethyl-3-formyl-6-hy-droxy-2, 5-cyclohexadien-1-one (7), lanierone (8), and aralia cerebroside (9) , respectively. Compounds 2, 3, 4, 7, 8 were isolated from the genus Ploygala for the first time, and compound 9 was firstly isolated from the title plant.
