J Asian Nat Prod Res. 2009 Dec;11(12):1028-31. doi: 10.1080/10286020903357525.

Abstract

A novel aryltetralone lignan, pedunculine A (1), together with a known lignan cagayanone A (2), was isolated from the leaves and twigs of Litsea pedunculata. The structure of the new lignan was elucidated on the basis of spectroscopic methods and single-crystal X-ray diffraction.
