There have been few reports on the constituents and biological activity of stem bark of $Acer$ $tegmentosum$, and no phytochemical and biological studies have been reported for stem wood of $A.$ $tegmentosum$. Two flavan 3-ols (1 and 2), three phenolic acid/alcohols (3~5), and two coumarins (6 and 7) were isolated from the stem wood of $A.$ $tegmentosum$ by repeated column chromatography. The structure of isolated compounds were identified as (+)-catechin (1), (-)-epicatechin (2), $p$-hydroxybenzaldehyde (3), syringic alcohol (4), $p$-tyrosol (5), scopoletin (6), and cleomiscosin A (7) on the basis of spectroscopic evidences such as $^1H$-NMR, $^{13}C$-NMR, 2D-NMR and MS spectrum. $p$-Hydroxybenzaldehyde (3), syringic alcohol (4), scopoletin (6), and cleomiscosin A (7) have not been reported from this plant so far. (+)-Catechin (1) and (-)-epicatechin (2) showed the higher 1, 1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity than butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA) used as a positive control.

A high-performance liquid chromatography-diode array detector (HPLC-DAD) method was established for quantitative evaluation of nine constituents of Fraxinus rhynchophylla such as four coumarins, esculin (1), fraxin (2), esculetin (3), fraxetin (4), three lignans, syringaresinol 4,4'-O-${\beta}$-diglucoside (5), pinoresinol 4-O-${\beta}$-glucoside (6), pinoresinol (9), one secoiridoid, oleuropein (7), and one coumarinolignan, cleomiscosin C (8). The preferred chromatographic condition was obtained on Phenomenex Gemini-NX (3 ${\mu}m$, C18 110A, $150{\times}4.60$ mm) and the mobile phase was composed of water and acetonitrile using a gradient elution. The wavelength was set at 220 nm. Extraction condition of these constituents in F. rhynchophylla was also optimized through extraction time, extraction solvent and extraction method using established method. From this study, extraction at $70^{\circ}C$ with the mixture of ethanol and water for more than 12 h was suggested to be good extraction condition for these constituents. Quantitation of nine constituents in different F. rhynchophylla samples was also successfully accomplished with the newly established method.

Two coumarinolignans, cleomiscosins C (1) and D (2) were isolated from the heartwood of Acer mono, together with four compounds, 5-O-methyl-(E)-resveratrol-3-O-${\beta}$-D-glucopyranoside (3), 5-O-methyl-(E)-resveratrol-3-O-${\beta}$-D-apiofuranosyl-(1$\rightarrow$6)-${\beta}$-D-glucopyranoside (4), scopoletin (5), and (E)-resveratrol-3-O-${\beta}$-D-glucopyranoside (6). Of them, cleomiscosins C (1) and D (2) were applied to preparing inclusion complex molecules with ${\beta}$-cyclodextrin (${\beta}$-CD) to improve the very poor solubility in cell media. The CD complexes of 1 and 2 exhibited an enhancement of water solubility which is feasible to measure their cytotoxicity using a spectrophotometer in a cell-based assay. Anti-proliferative activity of these complex molecules was successfully estimated on HCT116 human colon cancer cells, and cleomiscosin D (2) showed anti-proliferative effects at the concentration of 1.95~31.2 ${{\mu}g}$/mL in a dose-dependent manner.
