STUDIES ON THE CHEMICAL COMPONENTS OF VISCUM COLORATUM Ⅷ. ISOLATION AND STRUCTURE OF 3-β-D-GLUCOPYRANOSYLOXY-BUTANOL-2

From the ethanol extract of Viscum coloratum (Kom.) Nakai , a giucoside ofaliphatic diol and three other glucosides were isolated. Based on chemical and spectroscopic analysis,the structures have been elucidated as 2-β-D- glucosyl-3- methylpropanol (Ⅷ), syringin (Ⅸ),eleatheroside E(Ⅹ) and syringenin-4'-O-D-apiosylglucoside (Ⅺ). Ⅷ is a new glucoside of aliphaticdiol and named 3-β-D-glucopyranosyloxy-butanol-2. Three other compounds (Ⅸ～-Ⅺ) were foundfor the first time in this plant.
