Abstract
From the Chinese crude drugshin-i, the flower buds ofMagnolia fargesii, four sesquiterpene, oplopanone (1), oplodiol (2), homalomenol A (3) and 1β,4β,7α-trihydroxyeudesmane (4) were isolated. These structures were elucidated and the13C-NMR chemical, shifts of these compounds were revised by means of various 2D-NMR techniques.
