Objective:
To study the flavone constituents in Chrozophora sabulosa (Xinjiang origin).
Method:
The compounds were extracted with 95% ethyl alcohol, isolated by various column chromatography and identified by spectroscopic methods.
Result:
Seven flavanoids were isolated and identified as quercetin (I), kaempferol (II), apigenin (III), chrysoerid (IV), isoquercitrin (V), chrysoerin-7-O-beta-D-glucoside (VI) and quercetin-3-O-alpha-D-arabinfuranoside (VII).
Conclusion:
All of these seven compounds were obtained from this genus for the first time.
