title: Sesquiterpenoids and phenylpropanoids from Chloranthus serratus.
abstract: Seven new sesquiterpenoids, chlorantenes A-G (1-7), two new phenylpropanoids (8 and 9), and six known sesquiterpenoids were isolated from the whole plants of Chloranthus serratus. Their structures were elucidated on the basis of spectroscopic analyses. Chlorantene A (1) was a sesquiterpene with a unique C-4 and C-10 linkage, and chlorantene B (2) possessed a nitro group at C-1. The structure of a eudesmane-type sesquiterpene previously isolated from Chloranthus henryi was revised as its 4-epimer (3a).
