Isolation of Steroids and Flavonoids from the Herbs of Hypericum ascyron L.

물레나물로부터 Steroid 및 Flavonoid 성분의 분리

A sterol mixture, 3-O-glucosides of these sterols, 6'-O-fattyacyl ester of these sterol glucosides, kaempferol, quercetin and isoquercitrin were isolated from the whole plants of Hypericum ascyron L. The sterols were found to be a mixture of ${\beta}-sitosterol$, campesterol and stigmasterol by GC-MS. The kinds of fatty acids linked at 6'-OH of sterol glucoside ester mixture were shown to be palmitic acid, stearic acid, oleic acid and linoleic acid by GC-MS. Three flavonoids were identified by spectroscopic methods and comparisons of mixed mp and co-TLC with authentic specimens.
