From the water-soluble portion of the methanol extract of the fresh rhizome of Atractylodes japonica, five new sesquiterpenoid glycosides, including a compound having a secoguaiane skeleton, and a new aromatic compound glycoside were isolated together with ten known compounds. Their structures were clarified by spectral investigation.

Article Synopsis
  • * Their chemical structures were determined using advanced techniques like spectroscopy and mass spectrometry, with absolute configurations confirmed through electronic circular dichroism calculations.
  • * The new compounds were tested for their ability to kill cancer cells, showing that one compound was effective against three types of cancer cells (HT-29, A-549, and MCF-7), while the other was effective against only two (HT-29 and MCF-7).
