title: [Studies on chemical constituents of Stellera chamejasma L].
abstract: 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.
