Abstract
The fruit of Euphoria longana Lamarck (Sapindaceae) is a sweet food which is available in China and South Asia. Its pulp or flesh (Longan Arillus) is used as a tonic, and for the treatment of amnesia, insomnia, various palpitations due to fright, etc. It is traditionally said to fortify the heart and stabilize the spirit. Four compounds were isolated from the pulp of E. longana. The structures of these compounds were determinded as ${\beta}-sitosterol$, daucosterol, uracil and adenosine by means of spectroscopic methods.
