Chemical Constituents of Root of Isodon adenantha

Objective: To explore the chemical constituents of root of Isodon adenantha. Methods: Compounds were separated and purified by silica gel column chromatography and their structures were elucidated on the basis of spectral analysis and chemical evidences. Results: Six compounds were obtained from ethyl acetate fraction of the extract of root of I. adenantha and were identified as 8(17), 13-ent-labda-dien-15→16-lactone-19-oic acid(1 ), adenanthin( 2), ursolic acid(3 ), β-sitosterol( 4), stigmast-5,22-dien-3β,7α-diol (5), and 5,8-Epidioxy-5α,8α-ergosta-6,22E- dien-3β-ol (6 ). Conclusion: Compounds 1~6 were isolated from the root of I. adenantha for the first time. while the compounds 5 and 6 were firstly obtained from this plant.
