The invention relates to the technical field of
plant extraction, and provides a plurality of phenolic compounds in
senecio scandens, and a preparation method and application thereof. The method comprises the following steps: crushing
senecio scandens, adding
ethyl acetate, and performing ultrasonic heating, stirring and extracting to obtain an extracting solution; carrying out rotary
evaporation and vacuum concentration on the extracting solution to obtain a crude extract; dissolving the crude extract by using absolute ethyl
alcohol through ultrasonic heating, carrying out
gradient elution through a macroporous adsorption resin
chromatographic column, and collecting an
ethanol water eluent; and concentrating the
ethanol water eluent under reduced pressure, stirring with a reverse-phase filler, loading with a dry method, packing with a wet method, and sequentially performing
isocratic elution with a reverse-phase
chromatographic column and purification with a gel column. The
dissolution efficiency of phenolic compounds in
senecio scandens is improved through ultrasonic and mild heating, the problems that components are degraded due to high temperature in traditional
reflux extraction and time and
solvent are consumed in dipping extraction are solved, and target component residues are reduced; and then through
gradient elution of a
chromatographic separation column,
isocratic elution of a reversed-phase
chromatographic column and purification of a gel column, the problem that
phenols are similar in structure and easy to co-elute is accurately solved.
