Abstract

A phytochemical investigation of Anemone vitifolia (Buch.-Ham.) led to the isolation of twelve compounds, including six lignans (1–6), four benzoic acid esters (7–10), one norsesquiterpenoid (11) and one lactone (12). The structures of these metabolites were established on the basis of detailed spectroscopic analysis, as well as comparisons with the data available in the literature. Among them, compounds 10 (dimethyl 2-(benzoyloxy)succinate) and 12 (4-hydroxy-5-methyl-γ-butyrolactone) were isolated for the first time as natural products. Compounds 1 and 11, compounds 2, 3, 5–7 and 9, and compounds 4 and 8 were isolated for the first time in family Ranunculaceae, genus Anemone and A. vitifolia respectively. The chemotaxonomic significance of the isolated compounds was discussed.
