Chemical Constituents from Sabina chinensis(Linn.) Ant.cv.Kaizuca

The chemical constituents of the branches and leaves of Sabina chinensis (Linn.) Ant. cv. Kaizuca were isolated by column chromatography of silica gel, MCI, RP-C18 and Sephadex LH-20, and their structures were mainly identified by spectral methods (MS and NMR). Eleven compounds were finally isolated and elucidated as amentoflavone (1),podocarpusflavone A (2),7-O-β-D-glucopyranosyl-4'-methylapigenin (3),hypolaetin-7-O-β-Dxylopyranoside (4),acacetin (5),quercitrin (6),junipediol B 8-O-β-D-glucopyranoside (7),skimmin (8),soya cerebroside I (9),daucosterol (10) and β-sitosterol (11). All the eleven compounds were isolated from this species for the first time.
