Abstract
Two new sesquiterpenes, 3'-chloro-2'-hydroxy-3-epi-arguticinin (1) and argutenol (2) belonging to eudesmane and gorgonane classes respectively, have been isolated from Pluchea arguta. Their structures were elucidated with the help of sophisticated spectroscopic techniques including nOe difference and NOESY experiments.
