OBJECTIVE To study the constituents of Evodia rutaecarpa. METHODS The constituents were isolated by various chromatographic techniques and the structures were elucidated by their physicochemical properties and the spectral data analysis. RESULTS Eleven compounds were isolated and identified as rutaecarpine (1), dehydroevodiamine (2), limonin (3), wuchuyuamide I (4), evocarpine (5), daucosterol (6), taraxerone (7), 14-ursen-3-ol-1-one (8), trans-caffeic acid methylate (9), methyl coumarate (10), caffeine (11). CONCLUSIONS Compounds 7, 8, 10, 11 were isolated from E. rutaecarpa for the first time.

D009930	Organic Chemicals	A broad class of substances containing carbon and its derivatives. Many of these chemicals will frequently contain hydrogen with or without oxygen, nitrogen, sulfur, phosphorus, and other elements. They exist in either carbon chain or carbon ring form.

D021241	Spectrometry, Mass, Electrospray Ionization	A mass spectrometry technique used for analysis of nonvolatile compounds such as proteins and macromolecules. The technique involves preparing electrically charged droplets from analyte molecules dissolved in solvent. The electrically charged droplets enter a vacuum chamber where the solvent is evaporated. Evaporation of solvent reduces the droplet size, thereby increasing the coulombic repulsion within the droplet. As the charged droplets get smaller, the excess charge within them causes them to disintegrate and release analyte molecules. The volatilized analyte molecules are then analyzed by mass spectrometry.
