Sesquiterpenoids from Chloranthus spicatus (Thunb.) Makino
Abstract
Two new sesquiterpenoids, namely 1β,4β-dihydroxy-5α,8β(H)-eudesm-7(11)Z-en-8,12-olide (1) and 1β,4α-dihydroxy-5α,8β(H)-eudesm-7(11)Z-en-8,12-olide (2), along with six known ones, homalomenol A (3), oplodiol (4), 5α,7α(H)-6,8-cycloeudesma-1(,4β-diol (5), oplopanone (6), 4β,10α-dihydroxyaromadendrane (7) and spathulenol (8), were isolated from the aerial part of Chloranthus spicatus (Thunb.) Makino, and their structures were established by spectroscopic methods.
