[Studies on the flavonoidls from the herb of Striga asiatica].
OBJECTIVE
To study the chemical constituents of the herb of Striga asiatica.


METHODS
The constituents were isolated by column chromatography and their structrues were elucidated through spectroscopic analysis.


RESULTS
Eleven compounds were obtained and six flavonoiels were identified as apigenin-7-galacturonide( I ), apigenin-7-O-beta-D-glucopyranuronide (II), quercitrin (III), acacetin-7-O-beta-D-glucuronide (IV), apigenin (V), chrysoreiol (VI).


CONCLUSIONS
Compounds I - IV are obtained from this plant for the first time.
