Chemical Constituents from the Seeds of Lepidium apetalum Willd.

??OBJECTIVE To investigate the chemical constituents of the seeds of Lepidium apetalum Willd. METHODS The compounds were isolated and purified by Diaion HP-20, Toyopearl HW-40, MCI Gel CHP-20, ODS, silica gel chromatography combined with Pre-HPLC and the structures were identified on the basis of spectral data and physiochemical properties. RESULTS Sixteen compounds were isolated and identified from the water extract as catechol(1), protocatechuic aldehyde(2), 2-phenyl acetamide(3), methyl- 5-hydroxypyridine-2-carboxlate(4), benzylcarbamic acid(5), N-benzylacetamide(6), raphanuside C(7), 1-phenyl-1,2-ethanediol(8), 2-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-ethanol(9), isorhamnetin-7-O-??-L-rhamnopyranoside(10), kaempferol(11), methyl 2,4,6-trihydroxybenzoate(12), 2-(4-hydroxyphenyl)acetonitrile(13), syringic acid(14), protocatechuic acid(15), and methyl sinapate(16). CONCLUSION Compounds 1-16 are isolated from this plant for the first time.
