title: Phenolic constituents of the aerial parts of Cimicifuga simplex and Cimicifuga japonica.
abstract: Chemical investigation of the aerial parts of Cimicifuga simplex afforded four new fukinolic acid analogues, cimicifugic acids K-N (1-4), and 10 known compounds, and C. japonica afforded three new fukinolic acid analogues, cimicifugic acids K-M (1-3), a new phenolic glycoside, shomaside F (5), and 10 known compounds. Cimicifugic acids K-N showed more potent hyaluronidase inhibitory activities than rosmarinic acid.
