Abstract
Six aromatic compounds 1—6 were isolated from Sappan Lignum, the dried heartwood of Caesalpinia sappan L., and were characterized as 3-benzylchroman derivatives by spectroscopic means. They seem to be closely related biosynthetically to brazilin; 2 and 3 may be precursors and 4—6 may be key intermediates in the biogenesis of brazilin. © 1986, The Pharmaceutical Society of Japan.
