Abstract

Aliphatic compounds were fractionated from a few fresh plants by anion-exchange resin column chromatography, using nonaqueous media, and qualitatively and quantitatively determined by gas-liquid chromatography. The plants examined were leaves of Allium schoenoprasum L., Hosta undlata B., Ophiopogon japonicus K., and Hemerocallis fulva L., and stems of Scilla japonica B. All of them were found to contain aldehydes, mainly octacosanal, triacontanal, and dotriacontanal. By this method, fatty acid methyl esters were found in the stems of Scilla japonica B. and the leaves of Hosta undlata B.Allium schoenoprasum L. contained 16-hentriacontanone in the leaves.
