Abstract:To study the chemical constituents from the roots of Chirita longgangensis var. hongyao. The methanol extract was isolated and purified by silica gel,Sephadex LH-20 and preparative HPLC. Their structures were elucidated by MS and spectral data(1H,13C-NMR). Seven compounds were isolated and identified as plantainoside A(1),plantainoside B(2),calcedarioside C(3),calcedarioside D(4), platyphylloside(5),hirsutanonol(6), and hirsutanonol-5-O-β-D-glucopyranoside(7). Compounds 5-7 were isolated for the first time from the family Gesneriaceae.
