Objective: To demonstrate the chemical constituents of Alyxia sinensis.
Method: The constituents were isolated by column chromatography and identified by advanced physical and spectral analysis.
Result: Eight compounds have been isolated and elucidated as bauereny acetate(18), scopletin(19), liriodendrin(20), pinoresinol-di-O-beta-D-glucopyranoside(21), daucosterol(22), flaxetin(23), esculin(24), aseculin(25).
Conclusion: These compounds were found from the plant for the first time, and compound 20,21,23-25 were found from Alyxiae genis for the first time, and compound 18 is firstly been isolated from natural source.
