[Objective]This study aimed to investigate the chemical constituents of Dendrobium thyrsiflorum and determineitsbioactive compounds. [Method]The compounds were extracted by 95%alcohol and isolated by column chromatography on silica gel and Sephadex LH-20.Their structures were identified by spectroscopic analysis(1H NMR and13C NMR).[Result]Seven compounds were obtained and iden-tified as 4,7-dihydroxy-2-methoxy-9,10-dihydrophenan-threne(1),syringaldehyde(2),moscatin(3),gigantol(4),batatasin III(5),tristin(6)and stigmasterol(7).[Conclusion]Compounds 1 and 2 were isolated from this medicinal plant for the first time.
Dendrobium thyrsiflorum;Medicinal plant;Chemical constituents
T he genus Dendrobium includes about 1100 species which are widely distributed throughout Asia,Europe and Oceania[1].In lit-erature review,we found that the medicinal plants of this genus were used to nourish stomach,promote the production of body fluid and reduce fever[2].In recent years,the investiga-tion disclosed that this medicinal plant mainly contains phenolic compounds,such as bibenzyls,phenanthrenes and fluo renones[3-7].We researched this medicinal plan in order to find new bioactive components from this Chi-nese famous traditional herb.In this paper,we reported herein the isolation and structure elucidation ofseven compounds from D.Thyrsiflorum.
General
Column chromatography (CC):silica gel(200-300 mesh),TLC:silica gel GF254,1H NMR and13C NMR spectra:Bruker AM-500 and DRX-500 spectrometer with CDCl3and(CD3)2CO as solvent and TMS as internal stan-dard.
Plant materials
The herbs of D.thyrsiflorum were collected from Xishuangbanna of Yunnan Province in 2013,China.A voucher specimen of this collection was deposited at Herbarium of Kun-ming MedicalUniversity,Kunming,China.
Methods
Air-dried and powdered herbs of D.thyrsifloum (3.5 kg)were soaked with EtOAc five times at room temper-ature.After the evaporation of EtOAc extract,the extract was subjected to column chromatography over silica gel eluted with petroleum ether:ethyl ac-etate gradient(10∶0,9∶1,8∶2,7∶3,6∶4,1∶1,0∶1)and gave 7 fractions (Fr1-Fr7).Fr3(11.28g)waschromatographed over a column of silica gel with gradi-ent elution by petroleum ether:ethyl acetate(8∶1,7∶1,6∶1,5∶1,4∶1,3∶1,2∶1, 1∶1)to isolate compounds 1-7,and filtration through SephadexLH-20 column eluted with MeOH∶H2O(1∶1).
