Abstract
Object To study the chemical constituents of the whole plant of Selaginella stauntoniana Spring. Methods Various chromatographic techniques were employed for the isolation and purification of its constituents, and structurally identified by spectral analysis (IR, UV, MS, 1HNMR, 13CNMR) and chemical evidence. Results Four compounds were identified from its extract as: emodin (Ⅰ), ginkgetin (Ⅱ), hinokiflavone (Ⅲ), amentoflavone (Ⅳ). Conclusion All the compounds were isolated in this plant for the first time; compound Ⅰ was found from the plants of Selaginellaceae Beauv. for the first time.
