Abstract
Diarylheptanoids, (5S)-1,7-bis-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)-5-hydroxyheptane-3-one (1, hirsutanonol), (5S)-1,7-bis-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)-heptane-3-one-5-O-β-D-xylopyranoside (2, oregonin), (5R)-1,7-bis-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)-heptane-5-O-β-D-xylopyranoside (3), and (5R)-1,7-bis-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)-heptane-5-O-β-D-glucopyranoside (4) were isolated from the leaves ofAlnus hirsuta Turcz. The structures of these compounds were identified based on the spectral and physicochemical data.
