title: Taxane diterpenoids from the seeds of Chinese yew Taxus chinensis.
abstract: The taxoid chinentaxunine has been isolated from the seeds of Chinese yew Taxus chinensis, and its structure determined on the basis of spectral and chemical methods. In addition, the known taxol C, paclitaxel, 10-deacetyl taxol A, 10-deacetyl-7-epitaxol, 10-deacetyl-10-oxo-7-epi-taxol, taxinine M, taxchinin A, 10-deacetyl taxinine B and taxuspine X were also isolated and identified from this source.
