Abstract:

Eighteen compounds were isolated from the rhizome of Acorus tatarinowii. Their structures were identified by spectroscopic data as (7S, 8R)-4,9′-dihydroxyl-3,3′-dimethoxyl-7,8-dihydrobenzofuran-1′-propylneoliga (1), (7S,8R)-4,9′-dihydroxyl-3,3′-dimethoxyl-7,8-dihydrobenzofuran-1′-propylneoligan-9-O-β-d-glucopyranoside (2), 7′-hydroxylariciresinol-9-acetate (3), 5-hydroxy-3,7,4′-trimethoxyflavone (4), rhoifolin (5), astragalin (6), pinocembrin-7-O-rutinoside (7), kaempferol-3-rutinoside (8), rhodionin (9), isoschaftoside (10), 5-hydroxymethyl-2-furaldehyde (11), trans-cinnamic acid (12), 3,7-dihydroxy-11,15,23-trioxo-lanost-8,16-dien-26-oic (13), 3,7-dihydroxy-11,15, 23-trioxo-lanost-8,16-dien-26-oic acid methyl ester (14), cycloartenol (15), daucosterol (16), lupeol (17), (22E,24R)-ergosta-5,7,22-trien-3β-ol (18). Except for compounds 4, 11, and 16,  all the other substances were obtained from this plant for the first time.

Key words: Acorus tatarinowii, Araceae, phenols, triterpenoids
