Abstract: Object To study the chemical constituents of Euphorbia wallichii.Methods The constituents were repeatedly separated and purified on silica gel column.They were identified on the basis of spectral methods.Results Nine diterpenoids were obtained from the roots of E. wallichii.Among them jolkinol B(I) is lathyrane type;caudicifolin (Ⅱ),helioscopinolides A(Ⅲ),C(Ⅳ),and E(Ⅴ) belong to abietane type;while ent-atisane-3β,16α,17-triol(Ⅵ),ent-16α,17-dihydroxyatisan-3-one(Ⅶ),ent-3β,(13S)-dihydroxyatis-16-en-14-one(Ⅷ),and ent-2-hydroxy-atis-1,16(17)-dien-3,14-dione(Ⅸ) possess an ent-atisane skeleon.Conclusion All of them are isolated from E. wallichii for the first time.
