title: Prenylated C6-C3 compounds from the fruits of Illicium simonsii.
abstract: Two new prenylated C(6)-C(3) compounds, 4-epi-illicinone E-12-shikimate (1) and 3-hydroxyillifunone B (2), together with five known prenylated C(6)-C(3) compounds (3-7), were isolated from the fruits of Illicium simonsii. Their structures were elucidated on the basis of extensive spectroscopic methods, including 1D and 2D NMR, CD spectra, and ESI-MS analysis.
