Abstract: Nine derivatives of 2-( 2-phenylethyl) chromone were isolated from the agarwood originating from Gyrinops salicifolia by the column chromatography method with ODS,silica gel,Sephadex LH-20,etc,and their structures were then identified by using wave spectroscopy. The compounds were identified by using colorimetry as 6-hydroxy-2-( 2-phenylethyl) chromone( 1),6-hydroxy-2-[2-( 4-methoxyphenoxy) ethyl]chromone( 2),6,8-dihydroxy-2-[2-( 4-methoxyphenoxy) ethyl]chromone( 3),6-methoxy-2-[2-( 3-methoxy-4-hydroxyphenyl) ethyl] chromone( 4),( 5R,6R,7S,8R)-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-5,6,7,8-hydroxy-2-( 2-phenylethyl)-4-hydrogen-chromone( 5),5α,6β,7β,8α-trihydroxy-methoxy-2-( 2-phenylethyl)-4 hydrogen-chromone( 6),6-hydroxy-7-methoxy2-[2-( 4-methoxyphenoxy) ethyl]chromone( 7),( 5S,6S,7S,8R)-2-[2-( 4-methoxyphenyl) ethyl]-5,6,7,8-tetrahydroxy-5,6,7,8-tetrahydrochromone( 8) and 8-chloro-6-hydroxy-2-( 2-phenylethyl)chromen-4-one( 9). All of the compounds were isolated from agarwood originating from Gyrinops salicifolia for the first time. All the chemical constituents above were tested for acetylcholinesterase inhibitory activity using the Ellman method. The result indicated that compounds 2,4,8,9 exhibited inhibitory activities against acetylcholinesterase.
