OBJECTIVE: To study the chemical constituents of the stem bark of Albizia julibrissin Duraz.. METHODS: Chemical constituents were isolated and their structures identified by the repeated chromatography and spectral analysis. RESULTS: Five compounds were obtained as follows: (-)-Syringaresnol-4-O-beta-D-apiofuranosyl-(1-->2)-beta-D- glucopyranoside (1), (6R)-trans-2,6-dimethyl-6-O-beta-D-quinovosyl-2,7-menthiafolic acid (2), (6S)-trans-2,6-dimethyl-6-O-beta-quinovosyl-2,7-menthiafolic acid (3), 5,5'-dimethoxy-7-oxolariciressinol (4) and (-)syringaresinol (5). CONCLUSION: Compounds 2, 3 and 4 were new natural products isolated from this plant for the first time.
