Title: [Studies on chemical constituents of Balanophora spicata].
Abstract: To investigate the chemical constituents of Balanophora spicata.Various chromatographic and spectral techniques were used to isolate the constituents and elucidate their structures.Eight compounds were isolated from whole plant of B. spicata and elucidated as balanophorin A (1), balanophorin B (2), beta-amyrin acetate (3), monogynol A (4), lupeone (5), caffeic acid ethyl ester (6), catechin (7), 1-O-(E)-caffeoyl-3-O-galloyl-beta-D-glucopyranose (8), respectively.Compounds of 1-8 were obtained from B. spicata for the first time and the compound 4 was isolated from this genus for the first time.
