| Abstract: | Three new coumarins, seselinal, sesibiricol and sibirinol, and 12 known coumarins have been isolated from the umbels of Seseli sibiricum. The new coumarins have been characterized as 5, 7-dimethoxy-8-(2-methyl-2-formylpropyl)-2H-1-benzopyran-2-one, 5-(3-methylbut-2-enyloxy)-7-methoxy-8-(2-hydroxy-3-methylbut-3-enyl)-2H-1-benzopyran-2-one and 5,7-dimethoxy-8-(2-hydroxy-3-methylbut-3-enyl)-2H-1-benzopyran-2-one,respectively. The known ones were identified as sesibiricin, isosibiricin, osthol, coumurrayin, sesebrin, sesebrinol, sibiricin, imperatorin, bergapten, xanthotoxin, isopimpinellin and mexoticin. |
