Angelica flaccida Kom. is a herbal plant growing wild in the marsh of valley in Korea. It has been used for sedative and analgesic as a folk medicine, but its constituents have not been clarified yet. Five known coumarins such as isoimperatorin, decursidin, (-) anomalin, decursin, decursinol and two sterols such as ${\beta}-sitosterol$ and stigmasterol were isolated from the root of this plant, Their structures were identified by the UV, IR, NMR, mass data and the physico-chemical properties.

The roots of Saposhnikovia divaricata Schischk. (Umbelliferae) have been known to possess analgesic, anti-inflammatory, anti-parasitic and anti-bacterial activities, and used for curing headaches, fever and arthralgia. In this study, we aimed to isolate active constituents to provide phytochemical data for the quality control of this plant. Nine coumarins, eight chromones, three sterols and a coumarolignan were isolated from EtOAc-soluble fraction of the roots of S. divaricata through repetive column chromatography method using silica gel, ODS gel, Sephadex-LH 20, MPLC and HPLC. By analyses of spectroscopic data and comparison of their data with those of published values, the compounds were identified as 3'-O-angeloylhamaudol (1), ${\beta}$-sitosterol (2), marmesin (3), phellopterin (4), anomalin (5), imperatorin (6), xanthotoxin (7), deltoin (8), bergapten (9), stigmasterol (10), ledebouriellol (11), hamaudol (12), 8'-epicleomiscosin A (13), xanthoarnol (14), cimifugin (15), 5-O-methylvisamminol (16), daucosterol (17), 4'-O-${\beta}$-D-glucosyl-5-O-methylvisamminol (18), nodakenin (19), sec-O-glucosylhamaudol (20), prim-O-glucosylcimifugin (21). Among them, 8'-epicleomiscosin (13) was firstly reported from Umbelliferae family and xanthoarnol (14) and nodakenin (19) were isolated from this plant for the first time.

This study was conducted to isolate a compound with anticancer properties from the roots of Peucedanum japonicum Thunb. (Umbelliferae), and to evaluate the efficacy of that compound's anticancer activity. The $CHCl_3$ layer was purified via repeated column chromatography and recrystallization. The two compounds isolated from $CHCl_3$ layer were identified via NMR spectroscopic analysis as (10E) 1,10-heptadecadiene-4,6-diyne-3,8,9-triol (Comp. I) and anomalin (Comp. II). (10E) 1,10-heptadecadiene-4,6-diyne-3,8,9-triol was the first report from the roots of P. japonicum. MTT assays were conducted to evaluate the in vitro cytotoxic activities of Compounds I and II against the following human cancer cell lines: HeLa, HepG2, SNU-16, and AGS. Comp. I evidenced the most profound cytotoxic activity against HepG2 cells ($IC_{50}=6.04{\mu}g/mL$), and Comp. II exhibited the most profound cytotoxic activity against SNU-16 cells ($IC_{50}=18.24{\mu}g/mL$) among the human cancer cell lines tested in this study. However, no significant cell death was observed in the CCD-25Lu human normal lung fibroblast cells. Quantitative analysis using UPLC (Ultra Performance Liquid Chromatography) showed that the roots of P. japonicum contained 0.015 (Comp. I) and 1.69 mg/g (Comp. II) of these compounds.
