巴戟天为茜草科植物Morinda officinalis的根,除作为补肾、强壮药而使用外,还用于治疗不孕症、风湿与脚气痛等。此次作为强壮中药的化学研究的一环,对巴戟天所含成分进行了研究。将巴戟天(4.0kg)的甲醇提取物以不同溶媒提取,再经顺相及逆相硅胶柱层析、HPLC分离精制,除得到已从巴戟天中分离到的柚木醌(tectoquinone)外,还分离 Morinda officinalis is the root of Morinda officinalis, which is used as a kidney-invigorating and strong medicine. It is also used for the treatment of infertility, rheumatism and athlete’s foot pain. This time, as part of the chemical study of strong Chinese medicines, the ingredients contained in the Morinda are studied. The methanol extract of Morinda officinalis (4.0 kg) was extracted with different solvents, and then purified by phase-sequence and reverse-phase silica gel column chromatography and HPLC separation to obtain tectoquinone which had been isolated from Morinda officinalis , also separated
