Abstract: | From the roots of Pseudostellaria heterophylla, three cyclopeptides and three amides were isolated, besides heterophyllin A and B. Their structures were determined as cyclo (Ala‐Gly‐Pro‐Val‐Tyr‐) (heterophyllin J; 1 ), cyclo (Ala‐Gly‐Pro‐Tyr‐Leu‐) (pseudostellarin A; 2 ), cyclo (Gly‐Gly‐Gly‐Pro‐Pro‐Phe‐Gly‐Ile‐) (pseudostellarin B; 3 ), methyl γ‐hydroxypyroglutamate ( 4 ), methyl pyroglutamate ( 5 ), and pyroglutamic acid ( 6 ) on the basis of spectral data, especially 2D‐NMR data. Among them, compounds 1 and 4 are new compounds. |
