Phenolic compounds from the rhizomes of<i>Gastrodia elata</i>

Abstract

Two new phenolic compounds, gastrodin A (1) and gastrol A (2), together with 7 known ones (3-9) have been isolated from the EtOH extract of the rhizomes of Gastrodia elata Blume (Orchidaceae), and their structures were elucidated by spectroscopic analysis and comparison of their spectral data with those reported previously.
