In this paper, we investigated the chemical components of the flowers of Cymbidium Lunagrad Eternal Green for the first time. In the whole post-fertilization, a new alkaloid, named Lunagrad A (1), and a new aromatic glucoside, named Lunagrad B (2), were isolated from the MeOH extract of the flowers of Cymbidium Lunagrad Eternal Green, along with other six known aromatic compounds (3-8) and three flavone glucosides (9-11). These structures were determined on the basis of NMR experiments, as well as chemical evidence.
Keywords: Cymbidium Lunagrad Eternal Green; alkaloid; aromatic glucoside; flavone glycoside; natural product; orchid.
