Study on chemical constituents of Paeonia veitchii Lynch. var Beresowskii Shiff.

Abstract

From the methanolic extract of the roots of Paeonia veitchii Lynch. var beresowskii Shiff paconiflorin (1), benzoylpaconifiorin (2). gallic acid (3), gallic acid methyl ester (4), salicinol (5), isosalicin (6), benzoic acid (7), tianshic acid (8) were isolated by various chromatography methods. Their chemical structures were identified by NMR spectroscopic data. This is the first report of 5,6 and 8 from family Ranunculaceae.
