title: [Studies on the chemical constituents of hypogeal part from Limonium bicolor].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To study chemical constituents of hypogeal part from Limonium bicolor.
  
  
  METHODS
  Column chromatography and spectral analysis were usded to isolate and identify the constituents, respectively.
  
  
  RESULTS
  Four compounds were isolated and identified as beta-sitosterol (1), gallic acid (2), luteolin (3), quercetin (4). Some white grease was obtained, and nine constituents were identified by GC-MS elementarily. They were 2,4-dimethyl-heptene (5), ethylbenzene (6), O-xylene (7), styrene (8), hexadecanoic acid etylester (9), 9,12-octodecadienoic acid etylester (10), diisooctyl phthalate (11), alpha-amyrin (12), beta-amyrin (13), respectively.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Compound 1 is isolated from Limonium bicolor and compounds 5-13 are extracted from Limonium Mill for the first time.
