Abstract:
Objective: To study the chemical constituents from the stems of Daphne acutiloba. Methods: The constituents were separated by column chromatography and their structures were elucidated by spectral data analyses. Results: Fourteen biflavans or biflavons were isolated from the EtOAc fraction of 95% ethanol reflux extract in the stems of D. acutiloba and were identified as daphnodorin A (1), daphnodorin C (2), daphnodorin C' (3), daphnodorin F (4), daphnodorin E (5), wikstrol A (6), daphnodorin K (7), iso-chamaejasmin (8), (+)-chamaejasmin (9), daphnodorin D1 (10), daphnodorin H (11), 3-methoxyl daphnodorin H (12), daphnodorin K' (13), and daphnodorin B (14). Conclusion: All the compounds except 14 are obtained from the stems of this plant for the first time.
