Twelve compounds were isolated and their structures were elucidated as kaempferol 3-O-β-D-rutinoside（1）, kaempferol 3-O-β-D-glucoside（2）, rutin（3）, quercetin 3-O-β-D-glucoside（4）, 6-hydroxykaempferol 3,6,7-tri-O-β-D-glucoside（5）, 6-hydroxykaempferol 3-O-β-D-glucoside（6）, 6-hydroxykaempferol 6,7-di-O-β-D-glucoside（7）, 6-hydroxykaempferol 3-O-β-Drutinoside（8）, 6-hydroxykaempferol 3,6-di-O-β-D-glucosyl 7-O-β-D-glucuronide（9）, isosafflomin C（10）, safflomin C（11） and hydroxysafflor yellow A（12） by spectroscopic analysis and comparing with the literature. Our results demonstrated that preparative pressurized liquid chromatography combined with HPLC fingerprint guide is an efficient tool to isolate the target compounds quickly.展开更多
