Xanthones from the roots of Cudrania fruticosa Wight.
Chemical investigation on the roots of Cudrania fruticosa resulted in the isolation of two new xanthones, 1,6,7-trihydroxy-2-(1,1-dimethyl-2-propenyl)-3-methoxyxanthone (1) and 3,6,7-trihydroxy-1-methoxyxanthone (2), together with three known ones, 1,3,5-trihydroxy-4-(3-hydroxy-3-methylbutyl)xanthone (3), 1,3-dihydroxy-6,7-dimethoxyxanthone (4) and 3,5,6-trihydroxy-1-methoxyxanthone (5), respectively. Their structures were elucidated on the basis of spectral and chemical techniques.
