[Chemical Constituents from Polygonum paleaceum].

Objective: To isolate and identify the chemical constituents from Polygonum paleaceum. Methods: Chemical constituents were isolated and purified by column chromatography on silica gel,Sephadex HL-20 and macroporous resin etc. The chemical structures were identified by MS,NMR and spectral analysis. Results: Ten compounds were isolated and their structures were elucidated as ethyl chlorogenate( 1),methyl chlorogenate( 2), kaempferol-3-O-α-L-rhamnopyranoside( 3), (-)-epicatechin( 4), paleaceolactoside( 5), protocatechuic acid( 6), kaempferol( 7), gallic acid( 8), chlorogenic acid( 9) and isoquercitrin( 10). Conclusion: Compounds 1,3,6,7 and 10 are isolated from this plant for the first time.
