Abstract:
Fourteen compounds were isolated and purified from ethyl acetate extract of
Cynanchum otophyllum Schneid. , and were identified as otophylloside A(
1 ), otophylloside B(
2 ), 2, 5-dihydroxyacetophenone(
3 ), methyl 2, 5-dihydroxy-benzoate(
4 ), vanillin(
5 ), arjunolic acid(
6 ), glycosmisic acid(
7 ), caudatin-3-
