[Chemical constituents of Discocleidion rufescens].
OBJECTIVE
To study chemical constituents of leaves from Discocleidion rufescens.


METHODS
Column chromatography and spectroscapic methods were used to isolate and identify the constituents.


RESULTS
Fifteen compounds were isolated and identified as chrysophanol (1), physcione (2), taraxerol (3), beta-sitosterol (4), daucosterol (5), scopoletin (6), apigenin (7), acacetin-7-O-beta-D-glucoside (8), apigenin-7-O-beta-D-glucoside (9 ), luteolin (10), diosmetin-7-O-beta-D-glucoside (11), luteolin-7-O-beta-D-glucoside (12), gallic acid (13), amentoflavone (14) and myo-inositol (15).


CONCLUSIONS
