Chemistry of Natural Compounds Aims and scope

A novel sesquiterpenoid, subamol ((3-methoxy-5H-9,10-dihydroxybenzo[3,4]cyclohepta[1,2-f])inden-7-yl)methanol)) (1), along with six compounds, including one ionone: (+)-abscisic acid (2); and five benzenoids: syringaldehyde (3), trans-coumaric acid (4), cis-coumaric acid (5), vanillic acid (6), and p-hydroxybenzoic acid (7), were isolated from the leaves of Cinnamomum subavenium Miq (Lauraceae). These compounds were identified and characterized by physical and spectral evidence.
