Abstract:Eight compounds were isolated from seeds of Achyranthes bidentata Bl. On the basis of the spectral data, they were identified as N-trans-feruloyltyramine (1), glycerol 1-O-9Z,12Z-octadecadienoate (2), -ecdysterone (3), polypodine B (4), ergosta-7,22-diene-3,5,6-triol (5), oleanolic acid 28-O-β-D-glucopyranosyl ester (6), oleanolic acid 3-O-β-D-glucopyranosyl ester (7), and daucosterol (8). Compounds 1, 2, 5 and 7 were obtained from the plant at the first time.
