Objective: To study the chemical constituents of Abelmoschus manihot.
Method: Chromatographic methods were used to isolate compounds from A. manihot, and spectroscopic methods were used to identify the structures.
Result: Thirteen compounds, myricetin (1), cannabiscitrin (2), myricetin-3-O-beta-D-glucopyranoside (3), glycerolmonopalmitate (4), 2, 4-dihydroxy benzoic acid (5), guanosine (6), adenosine (7), maleic acid (8), heptatriacontanoic acid (9), 1-triacontanol (10) , tetracosane (11), beta-sitosterol (12), beta-sitosterol-3-O-beta-D-glucoside (13) were obtained.
Conclusion: 2-11 were obtained from the genus for the first time.
