Methods The compounds were isolated and purified by silica gel, Sephadex LH-20, ODS column chromatography, and recrystallization. The structures were identified using physicochemical and spectral data. Results Thirteen compounds were isolated from M. speciosa and identified as docosanoic acid （1）, tetracosane （2）, octadecane （3）, hexacosanoic acid （4）, β-sitosteroi acetate （5）, β-sitosterol （6）, syringin （7）, maackiain （8）, formononetin （9）, ψ-baptigenin （10）, rotundic acid （11）, pedunculoside （12）, and daucosterol （13）. Conclusion Compounds 5, 7, and 10-12 are obtained from this plant for the first time.展开更多

It crystallizes in the orthorhombic system, space group P212121 with C36H58O10, a = 13.046（3）, b = 21.038（4）, c = 28.413（6） A, V = 7798.28（3） A3, Z = 8, Dc= 1.109 g/cm3, Mr = 650.82, F（000） = 2832, andμ = 0.080 mm-1. The final R = 0.0765 and wR = 0.1736 for 15117 observed reflections （I 〉 2σ（I））. The molecular crystal structure of pedunculoside shows relative stereochemistry of 3β, 19α,23-trihydroxy-urs- 12-en-28-oic acid-28-O-β-D-glucopy- rainosyl ester. The molecule is composed of one glucopyranosyl ring and five six-membered rings with ring junctures of A/B trans, B/C trans, and D/E cis. There are two C36H50O10 molecules in an asymmetric unit, and the title compound is stacked into a 2D layer structure through hydrogen bonds.展开更多
