Abstract Phytochemical investigations on the leaves of Valeriana officinalis L. led to the isolation of 18 compounds, including eight lignans (1–8), three sesquiterpenoids (9–11), five iridoids (12–16), and two aldehydes (17–18) The structure elucidation of isolated compounds was achieved on the basis of NMR and mass spectral data. Among them, three compounds (9–16, 18) are reported from V. officinalis for the first time and one compound (5) was isolated from the genus Valeriana for the first time. In addition, six compounds (2, 4, 6–8, 17) are isolated for the first time from Valerianaceae family. The chemotaxonomic significance of these isolated compounds has also been discussed.

从缬草中分离出的化学成分

摘要 对 Valeriana officinalis L. 叶子的植物化学研究导致分离出 18 种化合物，包括八种木脂素 (1–8)、三种倍半萜类化合物 (9–11)、五种环烯醚萜 (12–16) 和两种醛类 (17– 18) 基于核磁共振和质谱数据实现了分离化合物的结构解析。其中3个化合物(9-16, 18)为首次从V. officinalis中报道，1个化合物(5)为首次从缬草属中分离得到。此外，首次从缬草科中分离得到6种化合物(2, 4, 6–8, 17)。还讨论了这些分离化合物的化学分类学意义。
