In the course of studies on biological active constituents from woody plants, we previously reported the isolation of many lignan derivatives as neurite outgrowth-promoting compounds from an ethyl acetate soluble fraction of Japanese Cypress (Chamaecyparis obtusa). Further chemical investigation on the residual parts of the ethyl acetate soluble fraction of a methanol extract of Japanese Cypress resulted in the isolation of four new beyerene type derivatives and a novel sesquiterpene dimer formed between cryptomeridiol and hinokiic acid. Their structures were elucidated as 18-O-(Z)-p-coumaroylbeyer-15-ene-18-ol (1), 18-O-(E)-p-coumaroylbeyer-15-ene-18-ol (2), 18-O-(E)-p-coumaroylbeyer-15- ene-11β,18-diol (3), 18-O-(Z)-p-coumaroylbeyer-15-ene-11β,18-diol (4) and ent-cryptomeridiol-4-yl-hinokiiate (5) by 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, 2D-NMR, and HR-MS spectral analysis.
