Identification and structural elucidation of bioactive compounds from Scirpoides holoschoenus.

Phytochemical investigations of dichloromethane and methanol extracts of roots and rhizomes of Scirpoides holoschoenus afforded 21 stilbenes, six flavonoids, six ferulic acid derivatives and four diterpenes. Among these constituents, six stilbenes, one flavonoid, one diterpene and two ferulic acid derivatives, represent previously unreported natural products. Structure elucidation was performed by HRESI-MS, NMR, GC-MS, and ECD data evaluation.
