[Studies on polyphenolic chemical constitutents from root of Salvia yunnansis].
OBJECTIVE
To study the chemical constituents in the root of Salvia yunnansis.


METHODS
Compounds were isolated and purified by Diaion HP20, Sephadex LH - 20, ODS chromatography. Their structures were determined by spectral analysis and chemical evidence.


RESULTS
Twelve compounds were isolated and identified from the root of S. yunnansis protocatechaldehyde (1), caffeic acid (2), ferulic acid (3), rosmarinic acid (4), salvianolic acid A (5), salvianolic acid C (6), lithospermicacid (7), lithospermicacid B (8), 9'-methyl lithospermate B (9), 9"'-methyl lithospermate B (10), 9',9'''-dimethyl lithospermate B (11), 9'-ethyl lithospermate B (12).


CONCLUSIONS
The compounds 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 9, 10, 11 and 12 were first isolated from S. yunnanensis.
