title: Chemical constituents from Alseodaphne andersonii.
abstract: Five new compounds, including four C(17) gamma-lactones, dihydroisoobtusilactone (1), dihydroobtusilactone (2), 3-epilitsenolide D(2) (3), and 3-epilitsenolide D(1) (4), and one furanone alseodafuranone (5), were isolated from the root and stem of Alseodaphne andersonii. Their structures were elucidated mainly by spectral analysis (NMR and MS) and partially by chemical correlation.
