title: [Study on the chemical constituents of vinegar Schisandra chinensis].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To study the chemical constituents of vinegar Schisandra chinensis.
  
  
  METHODS
  Column chromatography was used in the isolation procedure. The structures of isolated compounds were elucidated by spectral data.
  
  
  RESULTS
  Five compounds were isolated and their structures were identified as kadsuranin (I), beta-sitosterol (II), schizandrin (III), 5,5'-[oxybis (methylene)] bis-2-furancarboxaldehyde (IV) and (NH)-form-2-Hydroxyquinoline4-carboxylic acid (V).
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Compound 5 is isolated from this genus for the first time.
