Abstract

A phytochemical investigation of the roots of Bupleurum chinese DC. led to the isolation of eighteen compounds, including three chromones (1–3), seven flavonoids (4–10), one dihydrochalcone (11), two phenylpropanoid glycosides (12–13), one lignan (14), three sterols (15–17) and one stilbenoid (18). Their structures were elucidated on the basis of NMR spectroscopic analysis and comparison with literature data. Compounds 6–7, 11–14 and 18 were firstly reported from the genus Bupleurum and the family Apiaceae. Moreover, the chemotaxonomic value of the isolates was also discussed.
