ABSTRACT
To study the chemical constituents from the rhizome of Menispermum dauricum,fifteen compounds,N-methylcorydaldine( 1),thalifoline( 2),stepholidine( 3),acutumine( 4),daurisoline( 5),acutumidine( 6),dauricicoline( 7),bianfugecine( 8),6-O-demethylmenisporphine( 9),bianfugedine( 10),dauricoside( 11),eleutheroside D( 12),aristolactone( 13),aristoloterpenateâ ( 14) and aristolochic acid( 15) were isolated from 75% ethanol extract of Menispermi Rhizoma by using thin layer chromatography and column chromatography methods. Their structures were identified based on their physicochemical properties and spectral data. Among them,compounds 12-15 were obtained from the genus Menispermum for the first time. Six alkaloids with higher contents were subjected to evaluate the anti-hypoxic activities by using MTT method. As a result,six alkaloids exhibited significant anti-hypoxia activities.
