Abstract

Four new sesquiterpenes, chlorajapolides F–I (1–4), along with nine known terpenoids (5–13) were isolated from the aerial part of Chloranthus japonicus. Their structures were elucidated on the basis of spectroscopic analysis, and a lindenane sesquiterpene, named 9-hydroxy-heterogorgiolide, previously isolated from the C. japonicus, was revised as its 8-epimer (1a). Moreover, methanol extract (ME), EtOAc fraction (EF), water fraction (WF), and all isolates (1a, 1–13) were evaluated for their cytotoxicities using two human cancer cell lines.
