Abstract
Three new sesquiterpenes, schisansphenins A (1) and B (2) and (β)βΞ³βcuparenol (3), were isolated from an acetone extract of the fruits of Schisandra sphenanthera. The known compound 4 was isolated for the frist time from a natural source. The structures of the isolated compounds were elucidated through extensive spectroscopic analyses, particularly 2DβNMR experiments (^1^H,^1^HβCOSY, HMQC, HMBC, and NOESY). A plausible biogenetic pathway for schisansphenin B (2) is proposed. Compounds 2 and 3 significantly reduced activation of NFβAT and NFβ__ΞΊ__B in the luciferaseβreporter assay.
