a water soluble polysaccharide, hb-1, with a molecular weight of 23,930, was isolated from radix ranunculi ternati. by hot water extraction, ethanol precipitation, deproteination，ultrafiltration and gel-filtration column chromatography. its sugar composition was determined by glc as glc, ara, and gal in a molar ration of 16.071: 2.722: 1. and the absolute configuration of glc was identified as ...

The basic substances of life include various amino acids and sugars. To search such molecules is the precondition to understand the essential nature. Here we reported four unprecedented hybrids of γ-amino acids and sugars from the roots of Ranunculus ternatus, which possess potential tail to tail ether-connected (6,6-ether-connected) modes in the sugar moiety. The structures of these hybrids we...

Two new benzophenones, methyl (R)-3-[2-(3,4-dihydroxybenzoyl)-4,5-dihydroxyphenyl]-2-hydroxypropanoate (1) and n-butyl (R)-3-[2-(3,4-dihydroxybenzoyl)-4,5-dihydroxyphenyl]-2-hydroxypropanoate (2), were isolated from the roots of Ranunculus ternatus along with the two known compounds vanillic acid (3) and gallic acid (4). Their structures were elucidated by physical and spectroscopic analysis. I...

Miyazakia gen. nov. with type species Miyazakia ranunculi (Miyazaki, 1971) comb. nov. is described. The species is illustrated and biometric data are provided for all morphs, except the fundatrix. This aphid genus is closely related to Sappaphis Matsumura, 1919. M. ranunculi is a heteroecious species; its primary host is probably Photinia villosa (Thunb.) DC and its secondary host is Ranunculus.
