Abstract

6-Hydroxykynurenic acid and ginkgolide B together with flavonol glycosides and biflavonoids were isolated from the yellow leaves of Ginkgo biloba and identified by means of spectroscopic methods. The correctness of $H{\"{o}}lzl's$ ${13}^C-NMR$ assignments for 6-hydroxykynurenic acid was confirmed by HMQC and HMBC techniques. Based on our present findings, it may be considered that the yellow Ginkgo leaves may contribute to be a source of high medicinal values.
