Constituents from the Stem and Root of Aristolochia kaempferi

Abstract

Three new phenanthrene derivatives, aristoliukine-C, aristofolin-E and aristolochic acid-Ia methyl ester, and one new sesquiterpene, madolin-P, together with 58 known compounds were isolated from the stem and root of Aristolochia kaempferi. The structures of these compounds were determined by spectral analysis. The cytotoxicity and antiplatelet activity of the isolated compounds are also discussed.
