Two new sesquiterpene coumarins, designated 5'-acetoxy-8'-hydroxyumbelliprenin (1) and 10'R-acetoxy-11'-hydroxyumbelliprenin (2), and a new diterpene, 15-hydroxy-6-en-dehydroabietic acid (3), along with 27 known compounds, were isolated from a CHCl(3)-soluble extract of Ferula assa-foetida through bioassay-guided fractionation. The structures of the new metabolites

Journal of natural products, 73(9), 1470-1475 (2010-08-14)
Bioassay-guided fractionation led to the isolation of six new tetrahydroflavanones, cryptochinones A-F (1-6), from the neutral CHCl(3) fraction of Cryptocarya chinensis leaves, together with 14 known compounds (7-20). The structures of these new compounds were determined through spectroscopic analyses, including
