Chemical Constituents from the Stems of Eurya chinensis

Abstract:

To study the chemical constituents of Eurya chinensis R. Brown, eight compounds were isolated from the 95% ethanol extract of its stems. They were identified by comparison of their spectroscopic data with those reported in the literature and elucidated as: erythrodiol (1), betulinic acid (2), friedelin (3), lupeol (4), β-sitosterol (5), stigmasterol (6), salicylic aldehyde (7), nonacosanol (8). All the compounds were obtained from Eurya chinensis for the first time.
