Abstract:
Seven compounds have been isolated from the Tibetan herb Biebersteinia
heterostemon Maxim.On basis of IR ,UV ,NMR ,MS spectral data and chemical methods,their structures wereidentified as :β-sitosterol(Ⅰ) ,daucosterol(Ⅱ), umbelliferone(Ⅲ),5,7,3′-trihydroxy-8,4′,5′-trimethoxyflavone (Ⅳ),glucoluteolin(Ⅴ),quercimeritrin(Ⅵ)and N-3-methyl-2-butenyl urea(Ⅶ).Compounds Ⅳ and Ⅶ are two new natural products.Compound Ⅶ is an active constituent.In pharmacological tests it showed some hypotensive,analgesic and immunity stimulating effects.
