Abstract
Seven compounds were isolated from the leaves of Hibiscus taiwanensis Hu. 5-Formyl-7,8-dimethyltocol (Hib-5) and magnesium chlorate(Ⅶ) hexahydrate diaqua [Mg(H2O)6(ClO4)2] •2H2O (Hib-6) were isolated first time from plant, along with known compounds, scyllo-inositol (HTM-P7), phytosterols (Hib-1), phytosteryl-β-glucosides (Hib-2), trans-ferulic acid (Hib-3), sterol glucoside fatty ester (Hib-4). The structures of these compounds were elucidated by spectral analysis.
