Abstract:

Eight compounds were isolated from cultured Cordyceps militaris by silica gel column chromatography and
recrystallization. Their structures were identified as zeaxanthin, β-cholestanyl oleate, 1-oleoyl-2-linoleoyl-3-palmitoylglycerol,
4,6,8(14),22(23)-tetraen-3-one-ergostane, β-sitosterol, ergosterol peroxide, cerevisterol and mannitol by thin layer
chromatography (TLC), HPLC-MS/MS, NMR and EI-MS. This study is the first report that zeaxanthin, β-cholestanyl oleate,
and 1-oleoyl-2-linoleoyl-3-palmitoyl glycerol were isolated from Cordyceps militaris. linoleic acid The major fatty acids of
petroleum ether extract of cultured Cordyceps militaris were linoleic acid and elaidic acid, acounting for 41.949% and 27.696%,
respectively, as analyzed by GC-MS.

Key words: zeaxanthin;&beta, -cholestanyl oleate;1-oleoyl-2-linoleoyl-3-palmitoylglycerol;Cordyceps militaris
