The constituents of the root and stem of Aristolochia heterophylla Hemsl

Abstract

Seven new compounds, sodium aristolochate-VII (1), aristolactam-CIV (2), madolin-I (3), -J (4), -K (5), -L (6) and -M (7) together with 71 known compounds were isolated and characterized from the fresh root and stem of Aristolochia heterophylla Hemsl. Their structures were determined by spectral methods. Compound 8 was revised as aromadendrane-4β, 10β-diol by spectral data and single-crystal X-ray analysis.
