The bark of ash(Fraxinus rhynchophylla) and elm(Ulmus davidiana var. japonica) trees were collected, extracted with acetone-$H_2O$(7:3, v/v), fractionated with hexane, chloroform and ethylacetate, and freeze dried to give some dark brown powder. Each fraction of the powder was chromatographed on a Sephadex LH-20 column using a series of aqueous methanol and ethanol-hexane mixture as eluents. The ash bark contained a large amount of coumarin derivatives such as aesculetin and aesculin in addition to trace amount of ligstroside and oleuropein. Most of the elm bark extractive were (+)-catechin and its glycosides such as (+)-catechin-7-O-xylopyranose and (+)-catechin-7-O-apiofuranose in addition to a small amount of procyanidin B-3, a dimeric (+)-catechin. NMR and FAB-MS spectrometric analyses were performed to characterize the structures of isolated phenolic compounds.
