Phytochemical study on rhizomes of Cimicifuga dahurica resulted in the isolation of nine new neolignan and phenylpropanoid glycosides, cimicifugasides A-E (1, 2, 7-9), cimicifugamides B-D (3-5), shomaside G (6) along with four known compounds (10-13). Their structures were identified by extensive spectroscopic analyses (1D-, 2D-NMR, MS, CD, IR, UV) and chemical methods. Their anti-inflammatory potentials were evaluated by measuring their effects on PGE2 production of LPS-stimulated RAW264.7 cells, and compounds 12 and 13 showed moderate anti-inflammatory activities.
