The phytochemical study for the extract of Nelumbo nucifera (Nymphaceae) seeds has led to the isolation of ten compounds including five simple phenolic compounds, two indole derivatives, a flavonoid glycoside, two abscisic acid derivatives. The interpretation of 1D and 2D NMR and ESI-Q-TOF-MS spectroscopic data revealed the chemical structures of isolates to be p-hydroxybenzoic acid (1), protocatechuic acid (2), (E)-p-coumaric acid (3), (E)-ferulic acid (4), (E)-sinapate-4-O-${\beta}$-$\text\tiny{D}$-glucopyranoside (5), tryptophan (6), 3-indoleacetic acid (7), isoschaftoside (8), dihydrophaseic acid (9), dihydrophaseic acid 3'-O-${\beta}$-$\text\tiny{D}$-glucopyranoside (10). To the best of our knowledge, 1 - 5 and 7 were identified for the first time from N. nucifera seeds, and the presence of dihydrophaseic acid (9) and its glucoside (10) were demonstrated secondly in this plant.

Phytochemical studies of the root of Aristolochia contorta afforded an unidentified N-glycoside rarely found in natural products. It's structure was elucidated as 8-desmethoxy-aristolactam $N-{\beta}-D-glucopyranoside$ by spectral data and chemical analysis. 6-Hydroxy-8-desmethoxy-aristolactam $N-{\beta}-D-glucopyranoside$, aristolactam I and aristolactam AII were also isolated from the same source. $^{13}C-NMR$ spectra were first assigned and the result confirmed N-C-O-glycosidic linkages in the glycosides.

One of the indigeneous plants to this country, Syringa dilatata $N_{AKAI}$ (Oleaceae) is known in commerce as 'Ya-Jung-Hyang' (野丁香) and has been known to be of effect as bitter stomachics. Seasonal variations in the content of polyalcohols and free reducing sugars in leaves of this plant which contains syringin glycoside, mannitol and free reducing sugars etc. were studied. Application of chromotropic acid to formaldehyde which was obtained from polyalcohols and reducing sugars by treatment with periodic acid results in reddish violet coloration and the solution has absorption maximum at wave length $570m\;{\mu}$. By the use of ionic exchange resin chromatography, poyalcohols were separated from the above mixture. The content of polyalcohols of this plant was plentiful in the growing season while that of free reducing sugars was decreasing vice versa.

Bioactivity guided phytochemical study of the petroleum ether and butanol extracts of Clematis hirsuta resulted in the isolation of 12 compounds. Rat paw edema as a model of acute inflammation was used to evaluate the anti-inflammatory activity of the extracts and the chromatographic fractions. Five known sterols and triterpenes namely: ${\beta}-amyrin$ (1), lupeol (2), ${\beta}-sitosterol$ (3), oleanolic acid (4) and stigmasterol glycoside (5) were isolated from the petroleum ether extract. The n-butanol extract afforded two compounds reported for the first time from natural source: (S)-(+)-dihydro-5-(hydroxymethyl)-2(3H)-furanone (7) and (s)-(-)-5-hydroxymethyl-2(5H)-furanone (8). In addition, anemonin (6), dihydro-4-hydroxy-5-(hydroxymethyl)-2(3H)-furanone (2-deoxy-D-ribono-1,4-lactone) (9), biophenol (cimidahurin) (10), glucose (11) and sucrose (12) were also identified. The structures were determined from spectroscopic data including 1D- and 2D-NMR experiments.

식물에서부터 새로운 소염작용제를 개발하기 위하여 여러식물을 대상으로 염증반응의 초기단계에서 중요한 역할을 하는 것으로 알려진 Phospholipase $A_2$에 저해활성을 갖는 물질을 검색하였고 그 중 강한 억제활성을 보인 유근피에서 유효성분을 분리하였다. 유근피의 에칠 아세테이트 분획에 대하여 실리카겔 크로마토그래피, Sephadex LH-20 크로마토그래피, 분취 박막 크로마토그래피를 수행하여 phenol성 -OH기를 갖는 활성성분인 PSH-II-84-1를 분리하였다. $^1$H-NMR 신호의 양상과 짝지움 상수 값에서 분리된 물질은 (+)-catechin 의 당 유도체로 확인되었다. $^{13}$C-NMR 자료를 분석하여 치환된 당은 D-apiofuranose로 확인되었다. 방향족환의 $^{l3}$C-NMR 신호들은 extended Huekel theory를 응용하여 얻은 net charge 계산 값과 상관시켜 할당하였다. 이상의 구조연구 결과 이 물질은 (+)-catechin-7-0-$\beta$-D-apiofuranoside로 밝혀졌다. (+)-catechin-7-0-$\beta$-D-apiofuranoside의 효소억제활성은 Type II Phospholipase $A_2$에 대하여 $IC_{50}$/이 600$\mu$M이었다.다.

The chromatographic separation of the MeOH extract from the aerial parts of Syneilesis palmata led to the isolation of a new sesquiterpene glycoside 4, together with four known compounds. Their structures were characterized to be 4$\beta$,5$\beta$-epoxy-caryophill-8,(15)-ene (1), 3$\beta$­hydroxy-gultin-5-ene (2), 4$\alpha$,5$\beta$-dihydroxy-caryophill-8,(15)-ene (3), (-)-oplopan-4-one-10-$\alpha$-O­$\beta$-D-glucose (4) and 3-hexenyl-1-O-$\beta$-D-glucopyranose (5), based on spectroscopic and chemical methods. Compound 2 showed moderate cytotoxicity against five human tumor cell lines in vitro with its EDso values ranging from 5.90-1 0.83 $\mu$g/mL.

Icariside II, a flavonol glycoside, was isolated from the aerial part of Epimedium Koreanum Nakai by the anti-hepatotoxic acitivity guided fractionation technique employing $CCl_4-in-toxicated$ primary cultured rat hepatocytes as an assay system. Its anti-hepatotoxic activity was evaluated by measuring activity of glutamic pyruvic transaminase released from the $CCl_4-in-toxicated$ primary cultured rat hapatocytes. Icariside II significantly reduced the activity of glutamic pyruvic transaminase released from the $CCl_4-in-toxicated$ primary cultured rat hepatocytes and resulted in 78% recovery of the toxicity at the concentration of $200{\;}\mu\textrm{m}$. The anti-hepatotoxic activity of icariside II on the $CCl_4-in-toxicated$ primary cultured rat hepatocytes was as potent as that of silybin.
