title: Aromatic constituents of Cymbidium Great Flower Marie Laurencin and their antioxidative activity.
abstract: Two novel aromatic glucosides, named marylaurecinosides B (1) and C (2), were isolated from Cymbidium Great Flower Marie Laurencin, together with six known aromatic compounds (3-8). These structures were determined on the basis of NMR experiments as well as chemical evidence. All of the isolated compounds (1-8) were tested for antioxidative activity using a superoxide dismutase-like assay.
