Objective: To separate compounds from the root of Gypsophila oldhamiana.
Method: Chemical and chromatographic methods were used to separate the compounds. IR, MS, NMR were used to determine the structures of compounds.
Result: Compound pentacosanoic acid, lacceroic acid, beta-sitosterol, alpha-spinasterol, daucosterol and sucrose were identified.
Conclusion: All the above compounds were obtained from this genus for the first time.
