[Studies on the flavonoids from whole herbs of Seriphidium terrae-albae]
1The Testing Centre of the Central People's Hospital of Huizhou, Huizhou 516001, China.
Objective:
To investigate the chemical constituents of whole herbs of Seriphidium terrae-albae.
Method:
Various chromatographic techniques were employed for the isolation and purification of the chemical constituents. The structures were elucidated by chemical and spectral analysis.
Result:
Seven flavonoid compounds were isolated and identified as apigenin, eupatilin, chrysoeriol, quercetin-3, 3'-dimethyl ether, quercetagetin-3, 6-dimethyl ether, quercetagetin-3, 6-dimethyl ether-7-O-beta-D-pyranoglucoside and quercetagetin-3, 6-dimethyl ether-4'-O-beta-D-pyranoglucoside, respectively.
Conclusion:
All of these flavonoid compounds were isolated from the plant for the first time.
