Abstract

From the aerial parts of Chinese Salvia miltiorrhiza Bunge a novel sesquiterpene (1), which possesses a rare substitution pattern, together with seven kown abietane type diterpenes has been isolated. Structure 1 was elucidated on the basis of spectral analysis, including 2D-NMR spectroscopy, especially long range 1H-13C correlation (COLOC). At the same time royleanone, 7α-acetoxyroyleanone, and sugiol were identified for the first time from the roots of Salvia triloba L. f.
