Twelve new grayanoids (-) along with five known compounds were isolated from flowers of . Their structures were fully characterized using a combination of spectroscopic analyses, computational calculations, and single crystal X-ray diffraction. Rhomollone A () possesses an unprecedented 5/6/6/5 tetra-cyclic ring system (B- grayanane) incorporating a cyclopentene-1,3-dione scaffold. Rhodomollein XLIII () is a dimeric grayanoid, containing a novel 14-membered heterocyclic ring with a symmetry axis. The antinociceptive activities of compounds , , , , and - were evaluated by an acetic acid-induced writhing test. Among them, compounds , , , and displayed significant antinociceptive activities at a dose of 20 mg/kg with inhibition rates ranging from 41.9% to 91.6%. Compounds and inhibited 46.0% and 39.4% of the acetic acid-induced writhes at a dose of 2 mg/kg, while compound inhibited 34.3% of the writhes at a dose of 0.4 mg/kg.
