Sesquiterpenoids from Chloranthus multistachys

An 8,9-seco-lindenane disesquiterpenoid, chloramultiol G, four eudesmane sesquiterpenoids, ent-(3R)-3-hydroxyatractylenolide III and multistalactones A–C, and four guaiane sesquiterpenoids, (1R,4S,5R,8S,10S)-zedoalactone A and multistalactones D–F, along with 14 known compounds, were isolated from whole plant tissues of Chloranthus multistachys.

Sesquiterpenoids from Chiloscyphus,Clasmatocolea and Frullania species

Eight liverworts, Chiloscyphus polyanthus and Clasmatocolea vermicularis (Lophocoleaceae), Frullania apiculata, F. clavata, F. folciloba, F. gaudichaudii, F. serrata and F. ternatensis (Frullaniaceae) were chemically investigated. ent-7,8-Eudesmanolides are important chemical markers of C. polyanthos and C. vermicularis. The latter species also produces 6,7-eudesmanolides which are the chemical markers of Frullania species. C. polyanthos and C. vermicularis are chemically quite close to some Diplophyllum species belonging to Scapaniaceae. The structure of 5β-hydroxydiplophyllolide previously isolated from C. polyanthos was revised to ent-7α-hydroxydiplophyllolide by analysis of its ¹H NMR spectrum. From the chemical constituents, the six Frullania species are classified to three chemotypes.
