| Abstract: | Six new cadinane‐type sesquiterpenes, (1β,4β,5α,10α)‐1,4‐epoxymuurolan‐5‐ol ( 1 ), (4α,10β)‐4,10‐dihydroxycadin‐1(6)‐en‐5‐one ( 2 ), (2β,3α,4β,6β)‐2,3‐dihydroxycadin‐1(10)‐en‐5‐one ( 3 ), (2β,3α)‐α‐corocalene‐2,3‐diol ( 4 ), (7S)‐α‐calacoren‐14‐ol ( 5 ), and (8β,9β,10β)‐8,9‐epoxycalamenene‐3,10‐diol ( 6 ) together with one known compound, (8β,9β,10β)‐8,9‐epoxycalamenen‐10‐ol ( 7 ), were isolated from the roots of Taiwania cryptomerioides. The structures of the new constituents were essentially elucidated by spectral evidence. |
