ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE: To study the chemical constituents of the aerial parts of Gladiolus gandavensis. METHODS: These compounds were isolated by silica gel, Sephades LH-20 and RP-18 column chromatographies. And their structures were elucidated by spectroscopic methods. RESULTS: Ten compounds were isolated, and their structures were identified as kaempferol (I), apigenin-7-O-alpha-L-rhamnoside(II), tamarixetin-3-robinobioside(III), nicotiflorin(IV), astragalin-2"-O-beta-D-glucopyranoside(V), quercetin-3-O-(6"-O-Ecaffeoyl)-beta-D-glucopyranoside(VI), beta-sitosterol(VII), daucosterol(VII), isopentylgentiobioside(IX), glycerol-alpha-monohexacosanate(X). CONCLUSION: Except for compounds VII and VIII, others compounds are obtained from this plant for the first time.
