[Chemical constituents from fruits of Ailanthus altissima].
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the chemical constituents from the extract of the fruits of Ailanthus altissimrna.


METHODS
Twelve compounds were isolated by chromatography and identified by spectral data.


RESULTS
The compounds obtained were identified as (+)-isolariciresinol (1), isolariciresinol 9-O-beta-D-glucopyranoside (2), gallic acid (3), D-sorbitol (4), vanillin (5), 6,7-dihydroxy-coumarin (6), stigmast-4-en-3-one (7), 5alpha, 8alpha-epidioxy-ergosta-6,9 (11), 22E-trien-3beta-ol (8), ergosta-4,6,8 (14), 22E-tetraen-3-one (9), cycloeucalenol (10), lupeol (11), betulinic acid (12).


CONCLUSIONS
Compounds 1-12 were isolated from this genus for the first time.
