Abstract: In order to provide theoretical basis for the material basis of analgesic effect, the chemical constituents and analgesic mechanism of Rhododendron molle G. Don root were studied. Component separation was carried out using macroporous resin, silica gel column chromatography and preparative chromatography, and the compound structures were identified by 1H NMR, 13C NMR and UPLC-QTOF-MS/MS. And the main targets and key pathways of components were analyzed by network pharmacology method. Nine compounds, including three dihydrochalcones, three triterpenoids and three fatty acids, were isolated and identified. The results of network pharmacology showed that 9 compounds mainly acted on MAPK1, MAPK3, MAPK8, IL-6 and CASP3 targets, regulated arachidonic acid metabolism and inflammatory mediators in tryptophan channels, and exerted anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects. In this study, the chemical constituents and potential mechanism were clarified, which provided a scientific theoretical basis for screening of analgesic substance of the root of Rhododendron molle G. Don.

Key words: Rhododendron molle G. Don root, chemical constituents, isolation and identification, network pharmacology, analgesic
