Cuspidan A (1), a new stilbene sestermer consisting of a resveratrol, an oxyresveratrol, and a 3,5-dihydroxyphenylmethanol constituent units and cuspidan B (2), a new tri-cyclic stilbene monomer were isolated from the bark of Gnetum cuspidatum. The structures and configurations of 1 and 2 were elucidated on the basis of 2D-NMR correlations.

Gneyulins A (1) and B (2), two new stilbene trimers consisting of oxyresveratrol constituent units, and noidesols A (3) and B (4), two new dihydroflavonol-C-glucosides, were isolated from the bark of Gnetum gnemonoides. The structures and configurations of 1-4 were elucidated on the basis of 2D NMR correlations and X-ray analysis. Gneyulins A (1) and B (2) showed inhibition of Na(+)-glucose transporters (SGLT-1 and SGLT-2).
