CHEMICAL CONSTITUENTS OF THE LIVERWORT MARCHANTIA POLYMORPHA GROWING IN VIETNAM

Marchantia polymorpha has been associated with many pharmaceutical applications in Asian countries, such as treating inflammation, liver disease, open wounds, boils, fractures, insect and snake bites, etc. This study investigated the phytochemical of M. grown Lam Dong Province. The acetone extract was applied to silica gel column chromatography obtain five compounds. Their chemical structures were elucidated by using Nuclear Magnetic Resonance spectroscopy, well comparison their NMR data reported ones. Five compounds ( Z ) - dimethomorph 1 , E 2) methyl 3,4-dihydroxybenzoic acid 3 marchantin A 4 quercetin 5 ).
