Two New Lignan Glycosides from Saussurea laniceps.

Two new lignan glycosides, lanicepsides A and B (1 and 2), along with the eight known compounds 3–6, epipinoresinol, syringin, ethyl caffeate, and 5,6,7-trihydroxy-4′-methoxyflavone, including sesquiterpene lactones, lignans, and a flavone, were isolated from the ethanol extract of Saussurea laniceps. Their structures were determined by spectroscopic methods especially 1D- and 2D-NMR techniques. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
