Undescribed compounds from Clinopodium chinense (Benth.) O. Kuntze and their coagulation activity studies.

Four rare compounds (1-4), including one 1,4-epoxy-benzoxepane derivative and one ringed prenylated naphthoquinoid skeleton, as well as one isopimarane-type diterpenoid and one megastigmane-type glycoside, along with three known megastigmane-type glycosides (5-7) were isolated from the ethanol extracts of C. chinense. Their structures were determined on the basis of 1D, 2D NMR, HR-ESI-MS and DP4+ analysis. Meanwhile, the in vitro evaluation indicated that compound 2 and 6 exhibited excellent procoagulant activities, which can significantly shorten prothrombin time (PT) and activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), respectively.
