Column chromatography of hydrophiic extracts from Rhodiola rosea and Rodiola
quadrifida led to the isolation of cinnamic alcohol, chlorogenic acid,
rhodiooctanoside, rosiridin,
rosavin and the phenolic compounds salidroside, rhodiolin and a novel
compound consisting of viridoside with an attached arabinose unit (mongrhoside).
HPLC analysis of plant material from different sources and from different
collection periods showed a great variability in the composition and in the
amount of pharmacologically active compounds contained.
