Abstract

Chinese olive (Canarium album L.), a native and a well-known tropical fruit tree in the southeast of China, contains large amount of phenolics and possesses great pharmacological activities. In this study, phenolics were extracted from Chinese olive fruit pulp using 80% (v/v) aqueous acetone, and acetone extracts were further fractioned with petroleum ether, ethyl acetate and n-butanol sequentially. From n-butanol fraction, a new phenolic compound was isolated and purified through AB-8 adsorption resin column chromatography, polyamide column chromatography and TSK Toyopearl HW-40 (S) column chromatography, and the structure of the new compound was established as 3-O-galloyl quinic acid butyl ester by electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS), 1D- and 2D-NMR (DEPT, COSY, HMBC, HMQC) and UV–vis techniques.
