TL;DR: In this paper, a comprehensive study of Chenopodium botrys L. (Jerusalem oak goosefoot), family Chenopodiaceae, growing in the valley of the river Issyk, Alma-Ata oblast, was conducted.
Abstract: Continuing a comprehensive study of Chenopodium botrys L. (Jerusalem oak goosefoot), family Chenopodiaceae, growing in the valley of the river Issyk, Alma-Ata oblast [1, 2], we have studied the flavonoid compounds from its epigeal part. The combined flavonoids were obtained by e x t r a c t i o n with m~thanol, followed by purification. By chromatography on a polyamide sorbent with fractional crystallization and preparative chromatography on paper we isolated three flavonoid substances. To determine the nature of these compounds we studied the physicochemical properties of the initial substances and of the products of their hydrolysis.

TL;DR: In this article, descending paper chromatography (LM paper) was used to identify acids from butan-l-ol saturated with 25% ammonia solution using markers; the indicator was a 0.1% ethanolic solution of Bromothymol Blue.
Abstract: The acids isolated from the oil by means of sodium bicarbonate were investigated by descending paper chromatography (LM paper) in butan-l-ol saturated with 25% ammonia solution using markers [1]. The indicator was a 0.1% ethanolic solution of Bromothymol Blue. Acetic acid (Rf 0.17), propionic acid (Rf 0.22), isovaleric acid (Rf 0.57), and enanthic acid (Rf 0.78) were identified. The phenols were extracted from the oil with a 5% solution of caustic soda.

Abstract: Continuing a study of the coumarins of the above-named plant, from the ethereal fraction after the elimination of the galbanic acid [1] we have isolated another lactone, with the composition C24H3204, M + 382, mp 189-190°C (methanol), [a]~ + 63 ° (c 1.0; chloroform), Rf 0.21 [petroleum e the r -e thy l acetate (5 : 1) system]. From its chemical composition and UV spectrum [244,255, and 327 nm (log £ 3.64, 3.38, and 4.29, respectively)] it belongs to the 7-hydroxycoumarin derivatives. Its IR spectrum contains absorption bands at (cm-1): 1733 (carbonyl of an ~-pyrone), 1617, 1562 (aromatic nucleus), 2990, 2965, 2940, and 1380-1360 (C-methyl groups), and 1.713 (carbonyl group of a saturated ketone). Acid hydrolysis of the lactone gave umbelliferone CsH603 with mp 229-231°C (from water), which was identified by the absence of a depression of the melting point in a mixture with 7-hydroxycoumarin.

TL;DR: The triol (IV) (C20Hs6Os, mp 69-71°C, IR spectrum: 3450, 3100, 1640, 990 cm -1) was obtained from stachylone by reduction with sodium tetrahydroborate in admixture with products as mentioned in this paper.
Abstract: The hydrogenation of stachylone in ethyl acetate over Pd/BaSO 4 took place with the absorption of one mole of hydrogen and gave dihydrostachylone (III), which was identical f rom its IR spectrum, melting point, and mixed melting point with the tetrahydrostachysolone described previously [2]. Another confirmation of this was the triol (IV) (C20Hs6Os, mp 69-71°C, IR spectrum: 3450, 3100, 1640, 990 cm -1) obtained from stachylone by reduction with sodium tetrahydroborate in admixture with products (V) (C20H3602, mp 47-50\"C; IR spectrum: 3450, 1650, 990 can -1) and (VI) (C20Hs403, mp 79-81°C; IR spectrum: 3450, 1670, 1645, 990, 830 cm-1), isolated previously from stachysolone on its reduction with sodium in butanol [3].
