Publication date: October 2018Source: Biochemical Systematics and Ecology, Volume 80Author(s): Yi Yu, Yang Song, Li Liu, Qiang Sun, Honglei ZhouAbstractSixteen reported compounds (1–16), including two sterols, nine triterpenes and five phenylpropanoids, were obtained from Nannoglottis yuennanensis (Compositae) by chromatographic methods. Their structures were confirmed on the basis of spectroscopic methods. Among them, five compounds were firstly reported from the genus Nannoglottis, while others were obtained from this species for the first time. In addition, this study indicated that genus Nannoglottis could be divided into Astereae Cass. As a result, N. yuennanensis may have close chemotaxonomic relationships with many other plants among Compositae family.
