Eighteen lignans were isolated from an ethanol extract of Machilus robusta by a combination of various chromatographic techniques including column chromatography over silica gel, Sephadex LH-20 and reversed-phase HPLC. Their structures were identified by spectroscopic data analysis as isolariciresinol-9'-O-beta-D-xylopyranoside (1), (+)-5'-methoxy-isolariciresinol-9'-O-beta-D-xylopyranoside(2), lyoniresinol-9'-O-beta-D-xylopyranoside(3), (+)-(8S, 8'S) -4, 4'-dihydroxy-3, 3', 5, 5'-tetramethoxylignan-9, 9'-diol 9-O-beta-D-xylopyranoside (ssioriside, 4), lyoniresinol (5), meso-dihydroguaiaretic acid (6), (+)-(8S, 8'R)-3', 4, 4'-trihydroxy-3'-methoxylignan (7), (8S, 8'R)-4'-hydroxy-3, 3', 4-trimethoxylignan (meso-monomethyl dihydroguaiaretic acid, 8), (+)-guaiacin (9), isoguaiacin (10), (-)-(7'R, 8R, 8'R)-4, 4'-dihydroxy-3, 3', 5-trimethoxy-2, 7'-cyclolignan (11), henricine B (12), (-)-(7S, 7'S, 8R, 8'R)-4, 4'-dihydroxy-3, 3', 5, 5'-tetramethoxy-7, 7'-epoxylignan-9, 9'-dio] (7S, 7'S, 8R, 8'R-icariol A2, 13), (+)-(7R, 8R, 7'E)-4-hydroxy-3, 5'-dimethoxy-7, 4'-epoxy-8, 3'-neolignan-7'-ene (licarin A, 14), nectandrin B (15), machilin-I (16), (-)-pinoresinol (17), and (-)-syringaresinol (18). All compounds were isolated from this plant for the first time. In the preliminary assay, compound 17 showed inhibitory activity against NO secretion of mouse peritoneal macrophages with an inhibition rate of 72.2% at 10 micromol x L(-1).

One new compound 3f-[(7',8')-4,4'-dihydroxy-5-methoxy-2,7'-cycloligna-7-en-9-methoxycarbonyl, 9'-carbonyl--] -- D-fructofuranosyl- (→)-- D-glucopyranoside) (Moltkiopsin A) was isolated and identified from the extract of aerial parts of the wild Egyptian plant (Frossk.), family Boraginaceae, for the first time, along with two aryldihydronaphthalene lignans 3f→9':6f→9-[(7',8')-4,4'- dihydroxy-3,3',5-trimethoxy-2,7'-cycloligna-7-en-9,9'-dicarbonyl]-6g-acetyl--D-gluco pyranosyl-(→) --D-fructofuranoside (Trigonotin A) which was reported for the first time from this plant species and a known compound 3f→9':6f→9-[(7',8')-4,4'- dihydroxy-3,3',5-trimethoxy-2,7'-cycloligna-7-en-9,9'-dicarbonyl]--D-gluco pyranosyl - (→)- -D- fructofuranoside (Trigonotin C) . These compounds were separated and purified using different chromatographic techniques and their structures were elucidated by extensive 1D (H and C NMR), and 2D NMR (COSY, HSQC, and HMBC), besides ESI-MS spectral methods.

A new phenylethanoid, 1-O-β-D-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-ethyl-6-O-vanilloyl-glucopyranoside (1), and a new furofuran lignan, (7R,7'R,7''S,8S,8'S,8''R)-4', 4''-dihydroxy-3,3',3'',5-tetramethoxy-7,9':7'9-diepoxy-4,8''-oxy-8,8'-sesquineolignan-7'',9''-diol (2), along with five known compounds (3-7) were isolated from the roots of Ilex pubescens. Their chemical structures were elucidated on the basis of extensive spectroscopic analysis, including UV, IR, MS, and NMR experiments. In addition, compounds 2-7 were evaluated in vitro for their cytotoxic effects on human HeLa cells; among them, compounds 2, 3, 6, and 7 showed cytotoxic activity against HeLa cells in the test.
