| Abstract: | Cimicifine A ( 1 ), the first cycloartane triterpene alkaloid, was isolated from the rhizomes of Cimicifuga foetida, together with the known compound cimicifugoside H‐1 ( 2 ). Their chemical structures were established by extensive NMR and MS analyses and by comparison with literature. |
