Abstract
A new natural product, meso-2,3-bis-(3,4,5-trimethoxybenzoyl)butane (1), together with six known lignans, saucernetin diol (2), licarin A (3), di-O-methyltetrahydrofuriguaiacin (4), ent-sauchinone (5), (–)-dihydroguaiaretic acid (6), and licarin B (7), were isolated from Saururus chinensis. Compound 2 was isolated from this plant for the first time. Compounds 1–7 were determined by spectroscopic methods. Compounds 1–3, 6, and 7 showed significant inhibitory activities on ADP-induced platelet aggregation, and compounds 5–7 showed promising neuroprotective effects on H2O2-induced injury in PC12 cells.
