J Nat Prod. 2007 Dec;70(12):1987-90. doi: 10.1021/np070433g. Epub 2007 Nov 29.

Abstract

Three new dimeric sesquiterpenoids, chloramultilides B-D ( 1- 3), along with 10 known sesquiterpenoids, were isolated from the whole plant of Chloranthus spicatus. Their structures were established by physical data (1D and 2D NMR, MS). The structure and absolute configuration of 1 was confirmed by X-ray crystallography. Compound 1 exhibited moderate in vitro antifungal activity.
