I think you need to use Transformers in ur code . give it a Try:

String sql = "select distinct product_brand from ecm_product";
//or     String sql = "select distinct(product_brand) from ecm_product";//no difference actually
SQLQuery query = session.createSQLQuery(sql);
query.setResultTransformer(Criteria.ALIAS_TO_ENTITY_MAP);
List results = query.list();

and you may follow this

Let me know if it works.
