Nortriterpenoids and lignans from the fruit of Schisandra chinensis

Chem Pharm Bull (Tokyo). 2010 Dec;58(12):1606-11. doi: 10.1248/cpb.58.1606.

Abstract

Phytochemical investigation of the fruit of Schisandra chinensis led to the isolation of a schisanartane nortriterpenoid, schindilactone H (1); an 18-norschiartane bisnortriterpenoid, wuweizidilactone I (2); two tetrahydrofuran-type lignans, schinlignins A and B (18 and 19); and three dibenzyl butane-type lignans, schineolignins A-C (20-22), together with 16 known compounds. The structures of these new compounds were elucidated on the basis of extensive analysis of spectroscopic data.
