Abstract: Sonchus arvensis L. is one of perennial herbaceous plants of the composite family. It is abundant in China. It has the efficacy of for the treatment of fever, carbuncles and inflammation. Thirty-four compounds have been isolated and reported from the plant. In this paper, from the extraction of petroleum ether of sonchus arvensis L.,three chemical substances were isolated. By means of chemical and spectroscopic (IR, 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, 1H-1H COSY, MS) analysis, they were identified as n-hexacosanol (Ⅰ), α-amyrin (Ⅱ) and santoman (Ⅲ). Among them Ⅱ and Ⅲ are the first time isolated from this genus.
