The present work is the first report on the ingredients of the × hybrid, a plant of the genus . So far, thirty substances have been isolated by various chromatographic techniques and identified by spectroscopic methods, such as UV/Vis, NMR, GC-MS and LC-MS. The compounds are classified as flavonoids: naringenin, eriodyctiol, eriodyctiol-7-O--D-glucoside, luteolin, luteolin-7-O--D-glucoside, apigenin, apigenin-7-O--D-glucoside, diosmetin-7-O--D-glucoside, quercetin, hesperetin and quercetin-3-O--D-glucoside; phenylpropanoids: martynoside, verbascoside, forsythoside B, echinacoside and allysonoside; chromene: 5,7-dihydroxychromone; phenolic acids: caffeic acid, -hydroxybenzoic acid, chlorogenic acid, chlorogenic acid methyl ester, gallic acid, -coumaric acid and vanillic acid; aliphatic hydrocarbon: docos-1-ene; steroids: brassicasterol and stigmasterol; a glucoside of allylic alcohol, 3-O--D-apiofuranosyl-(1→6)-O--D-glucopyranosyl-oct-1-ene-3-ol, was fully characterized as a natural product for the first time.

is a genus of wood-degrading mushrooms with medicinal importance. Most species have been studied extensively for their secondary metabolites, biological activities, and ecological value. In this study, the biological activities of the extracts of growing wild on trees in the region of Western Thrace (Greece) were evaluated, and the petroleum ether, dichloromethanolic, and methanolic extracts were studied further for their secondary metabolites.

Chemical investigation of ethyl acetate extract from the aerial parts of (A.Braun) Boiss. led to the isolation of ten natural products, and their structures were identified to be: 2-deoxy-D-ribono-1,4-lactone (), 2-O-feruloyl-L-malate (), three flavonoids: quercetin 3-O--D-galactopyranoside (), quercetin 3-O-6''-(3-hydroxy-3-methyl-gloutaryl)--D-glucopyranoside () and quercetin 3-O-(2‴-caffeoylsophoroside) (), 6-O-caffeoyl-1-O--coumaroyl--D-glucopyranoside (), two ecdysteroids: 20-hydroxyecdysone () and polypodine B () and two bufadienolides: deglucohellebrin () and hellebrin (), on the basis of MS and NMR spectra.
