Two rare C sesquiterpene lactone dimers, vlasouliolides J-K (1-2), together with three C sesquiterpene dimers, vlasoulioliones A-C (3-5), were isolated from Vladimiria souliei. Their chemical structures were elucidated by NMR and MS spectroscopic data. Among them, compounds 1, 3 and 5 were unambiguously established by Cu-Kα X-ray crystallographic analysis. Furthermore, compound 1 showed prominent neuroprotective effects against glutamate-induced neurotoxicity in PC-12 cells, with EC value of 2.11 ± 0.35 μM. And the leakage of LDH from glutamate-induced PC-12 was significantly reduced by compound 1 at concentration of 10 μM.
