A method for extracting two
tocopherol derivatives A and B from
Epimedium sagittatum and application thereof can effectively solve the problem of preparing
tocopherol derivatives A and B from
Epimedium sagittatum and realize the application in preparing anti-
breast tumor drugs. The method is as follows: the aboveground part of
Epimedium sagittatum is crushed, extracted by refluxing with
ethanol, recovered under reduced pressure, extracted, separated by
chromatography, eluted by gradient, recovered under reduced pressure, identified by
thin layer spotting, combined, purified, collected in the
retention time, dried, and obtained. The
raw material is abundant, the preparation method is easy to operate, the obtained product is good in quality and good in use effect, can be effectively used for treating
breast cancer, realizes the application in preparing anti-
breast cancer drugs, develops the medicinal value and commercial value of
Epimedium sagittatum, and has remarkable economic and
social benefits.
