J Nat Prod. 2000 May;63(5):692-3. doi: 10.1021/np990483o.

Abstract

One new biphenyl ether, aristogin C (1), and two new porphyrins, aristophylls A (2) and B (3), as well as 11 known compounds, were isolated from the leaves of Aristolochia elegans. Their structures were elucidated according to the spectroscopic (NMR and MS) analyses or by comparison with literature values.
