[Isolation and identification of chemical constituents from Albizia julibrissin Durazz.].
OBJECTIVE
To study the chemical constituents of the stem bark of Albizia julibrissin Duraz..


METHODS
Chemical constituents were isolated and their structures identified by the repeated chromatography and spectral analysis.


RESULTS
Five compounds were obtained as follows: (-)-Syringaresnol-4-O-beta-D-apiofuranosyl-(1-->2)-beta-D- glucopyranoside (1), (6R)-trans-2,6-dimethyl-6-O-beta-D-quinovosyl-2,7-menthiafolic acid (2), (6S)-trans-2,6-dimethyl-6-O-beta-quinovosyl-2,7-menthiafolic acid (3), 5,5'-dimethoxy-7-oxolariciressinol (4) and (-)syringaresinol (5).


CONCLUSIONS
Compounds 2, 3 and 4 were new natural products isolated from this plant for the first time.
