摘要:

通过对国产阿魏属(Ferula)16个种的化学分析,发现其中13个种含黄酮体成分,
包括槲皮素、山奈酚和芹菜素的糖甙,以槲皮素成分最普遍。这些成分多为伞形科植物所常
见,与对山芹属的研究结果较接近。未发现黄酮体的三个种,即新疆阿魏、阜康阿魏和托里阿
魏,均为具有强烈臭味的药用植物。本属近前胡亚属的国产种类常为分布于半湿润山坡的高
大草本,所含黄酮体以槲皮素糖甙为主,而分布于干旱生境的种所含化合物较复杂,除槲皮素
外,还含有芹菜素和山奈酚成分。本文还根据黄酮体成分对部分种的系统位置作了讨论。

Abstract:

 Sixteen species of Ferula L. (Umbelliferae)   were examined for their leaf
flavonoids, and at least 9 glycosides of quercetin, kaempferol and apigenin are detected in 13
species.  While most of  the constituents reported are common in the Umbelliferae, the unu-
sual one, apigenin-6,  8-C-diglucoside,  which was found in Ostericum Hoffm. in an earlier
survey has been detected in F. moschata (F. sumbul) The three species (F. sinkiangensis, F. fu-
kangensis and F. krylovii) from which flavonoids have not been found, are all medicinal
plants with strong garliky odor due to a high concentration of essential oils containing disulfi-
des.
       The  subgenus Peucedanoides  is found to be rich in quercetin glycosides, and the aglycon
pattern seems to have some relationship with habitat conditions in the genus: the species occur-
ring in comparatively humid habitats are often large herbs and often characterized by the pre-
sence of quercetin, while those growing in dry habitats contain apigening kaepferol, as well
as quercetin.   Nevertheless, any conclusion with certainty needs examining more  species  of
the genus.
       It is interesting to note that F. moschata, from which the glycosylapigenin was found, and
F. pseudooreoselinum, which probably has a trace amount of kaempferol glycoside, are pecu-
liar in Ferula in their inflorescence morphology.  The phytochemic results also raise a suspi-
cion against their systematic position within the genus.
      F. bungeana, previously placed in the subgenus Peucedanoides, has relatively great simila-
rities with F. syreitschkowii of the subgenus Narthex in their general morphology and fruit
anatomy.   In the present survey apigenin-7-glycoside is detected from both, and thus it seems
more suitable to transfer the former species into the subgenus Narthex.
     The same compounds have been found in F. licentiana and F. tunshanica, which also sha-
re the characters of morphology and anatomy.  The fact does support the view that the latter
should be included in F. licentiana as a variety.
