[Studies on chemical constituents of Stellera chamejasma L].
OBJECTIVE
Isolate and identify the bioactive compounds from the root of Stellera chamejasma.


METHODS
The compounds were extracted with solvents, isolated by column chromatography and identified by spectroscopic methods.


RESULTS
Seven compounds were isolated and identified as umbelliferone(1); daphnoretin (2); 2,6-dimethoxyl p-benzoquinone(3); (-)-eudesmin(4); (+)-matairesinol(5); lirioresinol B(6) and daucosterol(7).


CONCLUSIONS
Compounds 3, 4 and 5 were isolated from the plant for the first time.
