In continuation of our research on the chemical constituents of Pulicaria gnaphaloides [1], we isolated eight phenolic
compounds (1–8) using column chromatography of EtOAc fractions and elution by CHCl and a CHCl –MeOH gradient (9:1
3
3
and 4:1).
The structures of the isolated compounds were elucidated using spectral data (PMR, C NMR, DEPT, HSQC, HMBC,
13
COSY) and comparisons with the literature in addition to direct comparison with authentic samples. They were identified as
p-hydroxybenzoic acid (1), 3,4-dihydroxybenzoic acid methyl ester (2), luteolin (3), quercetin (4), isoquercitrin (5), hyperoside
(6), rutin (7), and quercetin 3-rhamnosyl-(1ꢀ6)-galactoside (8).
p-Hydroxybenzoic acid (1), C H O , white crystals, mp 159.5°C. Compound 1 was identified as p-hydroxybenzoic

acid using spectral data [2].
3,4-Dihydroxybenzoic Acid Methyl Ester (2). C H O , white crystals, mp 137–138°C. Its spectral data agreed

published [3].
Quercetin (4). C H O , light-yellow crystals, mp 305–307°C. Spectral data and a comparison with the literature

identified 4 as quercetin [2].
Isoquercitrin (5). C H O , yellow powder, mp 248–250ꢁC. H NMR spectrum (600 MHz, DMSO-d , ꢂ, ppm,

D-glucose.
Hyperoside (6). C H O , yellow powder, mp 231–232°C. Acid hydrolysis detected quercetin and D-galactose [1].

Acid hydrolysis of 8 produced quercetin, D-galactose, and L-rhamnose.
p-Hydroxybenzoic acid, 3,4-dihydroxybenzoic acid methyl ester, luteolin, quercetin, and quercetin 3-rhamnosyl-
(1ꢀ6)-galactoside were isolated for the first time from the genus Pulicaria; isoquercitrin and rutin, for the first time from
Pulicaria gnaphaloides.
