Abstract

OBJECTIVE: To study the chemical constituents of Ligusticum sinense. METHODS: The chemical constituents were isolated and purified by column chromatography on silica gel and Sephadex LH-20; Using spectroscopy methods to elucidate their structures. RESULTS: Nine compounds were isolated and identified as levistolide A (1), (Z)-3-butylidene-7-hydroxyphthalide (2), senkyunolide B (3), 3-butylphthalide(4), (Z)-ligustilide (5), riligustilide (6), neocnidilide (7), senkyunolide A (8), beta-sitostesol (9). CONCLUSION: Compounds 2 and 3 are obtained from this plant for the first time.
