  • The herb of Melampyrum roseum var. hirsutum Beauv. was extracted with methanol and the extract was fractionated with n-hexane, chloroform, ethylacetate and n-buthanol. Repeated column chromatography of silica gel, Sephadex LH-20 and Lobar-A lichroprep Si 60 led to the isolation of five compounds from n-hexane layer and ethylacetate layer. These compounds were identified as apigenin, linarin, pectolinarin, wogonin and mussaenoside, respectively, by the physicochemical and spectral properties.

  • As the continued studies for Korean cultivated rhubarb, MeOH extract of the leaves was fractionated with ether, ethylacetate, and n-butanol. From the ethyl acetate fraction of MeOH extract, one flavone glycoside, apigenin-8-${\beta}$-D-glucopyranoside(vitexin, $C_{21}H_{20}O_{10}$) and from the n-BuOH fraction of MeOH extract, two flavonol glycosids, kaempferol-3-O-(2,6-di-O-rhamnopyranosyl)-${\beta}$-D-galactopyranoside$(C_{33}H_{40}O_{19})$and quercetin-3-O-rutinoside(rutin, $C_{27}H_{30}O_{16}$) were isolated and identified through the physico-chemical properties and spectroscopic evidences(UV, IR, NMR, Mass) respectively.

  • Four compounds of a coumarin, a steroid and two flavonoids were isolated from the herba of Artemisia apiacea by open column chromatography. Their structures were elucidated as artemicapin C, apigenin, daucosterol and cacticin by chemical and spectroscopic analysis. This is the first report of the isolation of these compounds from this plant.

  • Impatiens textori Miquel (Balsaminaceae) is an annual plant growing in most parts of Korea. The herb of this plant has been used as a medicine for external application for the snake poison and the bruise. From the herbs of this plant, two flavone glycosides were isolated and the structures were elucidated by chemical and spectroscopic methods. The compounds were identified as apigenin 7-O-glucoside (cosmosiin) (I) and luteolin 7-O-glucoside (II). These compounds were isolated from this plant for the first time.

  • Seven flavonoids were isolated from the flower of Clerodendrum trichotomum. Their structures were identified as apigenin (1), genistein (2), chrysoeriol (3), genistein 7-O-glucoside (4), kaempferol 3-O-glucoside (5), isorhamnetin 3-O-glucoside (6) and apigenin 7-O-glucoside (7) on the basis of spectral data. These compounds were isolated from C. trichotomum for the first time. The antioxidant activity of compounds 1-7 were evaluated by the ORAC (oxygen radical absorbance capacity) assay, and the ORAC values were expressed as relative trolox equivalent. All isolated compounds exhibited antioxidant activity.

  • For the investigation of medicinal resources in Crataegus species, a study was carried out to clarify the constituents in the leaves of Crataegus Pinnatifida var. pubescens (Rosaceae), of which fruits have been used to stomachic, digestive, astringent, analgesic, and cardiotonic, etc. as a folk medicine in Korea. From the n-BuOH fraction of MeOH extract two flavone glycosides, vitexin(apigenin-8-C-$\beta$-D-glucopyranoside) and 2"-O-rhamnosyl vitexin(apigenin-8-C-$\alpha$-L-rhamnosyl-(1$\rightarrow$2)-$\beta$-D-glucopyrano side) were isolated and identified on the basis of their physico-chemical properties and spectroscopic evidences(UV, IR, NMR, FAB-Mass etc.) in comparision with authentic samples.amples.

  • Fourteen kinds of medicinal plants were screened for determining inhibitory activities on monoamine oxidase B. The extracts of Artemisia Messer-Schmidtiana (herba), Chrysanthemum indicum(flos), Ericibe obtusifolia (radix et rhizoma) and Sophora japonica (flos) strongly inhibited the enzyme. Among them, Chrysanthemi flos was chosen for elucidating its active principles, and some flavonoids were isolated and identified as acasetin (I), 5, 7-dihydroxy chromone (II), diosmetin (III), apigenin (IV), eriodictyol (V) and luteolin (VI).$IC_{50} were determined as following: 1, 2.46;II, 0.19; III, 2. 11mM, and the others showed weak inhibition.
