Abstract:
To study the chemical constituents of
Veratrum dahuricum (Turcz.) Loes. f., a new aurone glycoside named as (
Z)-7, 4'-dimethoxy-6-hydroxyl-aurone-4-
O-β-glucopyranoside was isolated from the 95% ethanol extracts of the rhizomes and roots of
Veratrum dahuricum (Turcz.) Loes. f. by repeated column chromatography on silica gel and recrystallization. Its structure was established by extensive spectroscopic analyses, and its cytotoxicities against HepG-2, MCF7 and A549 cell lines were measured
in vitro.
