Chemical constituents from leaves of Cinnamomum subavenium

• Chemical constituents of the Cinnamomum subavenium leaves from China'Hubei province were investigated for the first time.
• A new eudesmane sesquiterpene glycoside and eleven known compounds were isolated from the leaves of C. subavenium.
• All compounds were isolated from C. subavenium for the first time.
• The chemotaxonomic significance of the isolated compounds was summarized.

A new eudesmane sesquiterpene glycoside, 1α,6β-dihydroxy-5,10-bis-epi-eudesm-15-carboxaldehyde-6-O-β-d-Glucopyranoside (1), together with eleven known compounds (2–12) were isolated from the leaves of Cinnamomum subavenium Miq. Their structures were elucidated by a combination of spectroscopic data analysis and comparison with literature data. All compounds were isolated from C. subavenium for the first time. The chemotaxonomic significance of the isolated compounds was summarized.
