Four new bisabolane-type sesquiterpenes from Ligularia lankongensis

Nat Prod Commun. 2012 Apr;7(4):451-4.

Abstract

The chemical constituents of the roots of two Ligularia lankongensis samples collected in Yunnan and Sichuan Provinces, China, were investigated, together with the DNA sequence of the atpB-rbcL and ITS regions. Four new highly oxygenated bisabolane-type sesquiterpenes (1 - 4) were obtained. Intraspecific diversity in the DNA sequence was found to be limited.
