Objective To study the chemical constituents of the ethyl acetate extraction of Aralia chinensis Linn.var.nuda Nakai.Methods The ethyl acetate part of 70%ethanol extract of A.chinensis Linn.var.nuda Nakai was purified by silica gel,ODS,Sephadex LH-20,and semi-preparative HPLC,and the structures of the compounds were identified by the physicochemical properties and spectral data.Results Twelve compounds were isolated and identified as phthalic acid,bis-(2,5-dimethylhexyl)ester(1),(9E)-8,11,12-trihydroxyoctadecenoic acid methyl ester(2),methyl(9S,10R,11E,13R)-9,10,13-trihydroxyoctadec-11-enoate(3),capillasterolide(4),hexacosane(5),(-)-loliolide(6),methyl hematinate(7),tyraminel(8),(S)-methyl 2-acetamido-3-phenylpropanoate(9),3-hydroxy-4-methoxybenzoic acid(10),vanillic acid(11),and p-hydroxybenzoic acid(12).Conclusion Compounds 1-10 were isolated from this genus Aralia for the first time,and compounds 1-11 were first isolated from the plant.
