title: [Studies on chemical constituents from Euphorbia fischeriana Steud].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To study the chemical constituents of ethanol extract from dried roots of Euphorbia fischeriana.
  
  
  METHODS
  Compounds were separated by column chromatography with silca gel and elucidated by chemical evidence and spectral analysis.
  
  
  RESULTS
  Isobauerenyl acetate, beta-amyrin acetate, 24-methylenecycloartenone,octacosyl ferulate and 2,4-dihydroxy-6-methoxy-3-methyl acetophenone were isolated and elucidated.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  All the compounds were isolated from the plant for the first time.
