Abstract
Abstract The heartwoods of 10 elm species have been examined for the sesquiterpenes, 7-hydroxycadalenal (I), 7-hydroxy-3-methoxycadalenal (II), 7-hydroxycadalene (III), 7-hydroxycalamenenal (IV), 7-hydroxycalamenene (V), and mansonone C (VI), and for the lignans, thomasic acid (VII), thomasidioic acid (VIII), lyoniresinol (IX), and lyoniresinol 2a- O -rhamnoside (X). Cholesterol, campesterol, stigmasterol, sitosterol, 24-methylenelophenol, and citrostadienol were also found. The Section Madocarpus was distinctly different in its chemistry from the other four sections of this genus.
