OBJECTIVE: To study the chemical constituents of Codonopsis lanceolata. METHODS: Chemical constituents were separated with the column chromatographic, and their structures were identified by chemical and spectroscopic methods. RESULTS: Six compounds were isolated and identified as syringin (1), shikimic acid (2), friedelin (3), alpha-spinasterol (4), stigmasterol (5), stigmasta-7-dien-3beta-ol (6). CONCLUSION: Compounds 3-6 are isolated from this plant for the first time.
