To investigate the chemical constituents from the aerial parts of Plumbago zeylanica L. The chemical constituents were isolated by various column chromatographic methods and the structures were elucidated by various spectroscopic methods, especially 2D- NMR spectra. A new tfiterpenoid, 1β,3β,1 1α-trihydroxy-urs-12-ene （1）, together with six known compounds, androsta-l,4-diene-3,17- dione （2）, isoshinznolone （3）, neoechinulin A （4）, harman （5）, ergostadiene-3β,5α,6β-triol （6） and N-（N＇-benzoyl-S-phenylalaninyl）-S- phenylalaninol （7） were isolated from the aerial parts ofP. zeylanica. Compound 1 was a new compound, and compounds 2, 4-7 were obtained from this genus for the first time.
