Abstract

The seeds of Hernandia sonora L. (Hernandiaceae) yielded eight lignans. Five of them have already been described from other species of the Hernandia genus, namely podophyllotoxin (1), picropodophyllin (2), deoxypodophyllotoxin (3), hernandin (4), and podophyllotoxin acetate (5). 5-Methoxypodophyllotoxin (6), 5-methoxypodophyllotoxin acetate (7), and a dibenzylbutyrolactone (8) are new. Their structures are presented in this publication.
