Compounds of (+)-5,5'-dimethoxylariciresinol (1) and (3S,5R,6S,7E)-5,6-epoxy-3-hydroxy-7-megastigmen-9-one (2) were isolated from an EtOAc extract of the whole plant of Sasa borealis (Hack.) Makino (Gramineae) for the first time in the present investigation. The structures of compounds were identified by analysis of spectral data including 1D- and 2D-NMR spectra as well as by comparison of their data with the published values. These compounds have never been isolated previously from the family Gramineae.

Two new furanolignans (3, 5), together with three known lignans (1, 2, 4,), were isolated from the stem of Lindera obtusiloba (Lauraceae). The structures of the compounds were determined as actifolin (1), pluviatilol (2), 5,6-dihydroxymatairesinol (3), (+)-syringaresinol (4), and $(+)-9^{l}$-O-trans-feruloyl-5,51-dimethoxylariciresinol (5) on the basis of physicochemical and spectroscopic evidences. Compounds 1, 2, 3, and 5 showed cytotoxicity against a small panel of human tumor cell lines with values of $3.40{\sim}19.27 {\mu}g/ml$.
