Fourteen compounds were isolated from the stem of Angelica polymorpha. On the basis of spectral data, these compounds were identified as isoimperatorin (1), phellopterin (2), bergapten (3), xanthyletin (4), cnidilin (5), geijerine (6), (-)-3'-acetyl hamaudol (7), 7-demethylsuberosine (8), dehydrogeijerin (9), (-)-hamaudol (10), (+)-visamminol (11), divaricatol (12), scopoletin (13), and decursidate (14), respectively. Among them, compounds 4-6, 8, 9, 13, and 14 were isolated for the first time from A. polymorpha. Dehydrogeijerin (6) and geijerin (9) were isolated for the first time from genus Angelica. All isolates tested for inhibitory activity against acetylcholinesterae. Compounds 1 to 13 showed acetylcholinesterase inhibitory activity with $IC_{50}$ values ranging from 1.4 to $37.5{\mu}M$.

Thirteen compounds were isolated from the roots of Angelica genuflexa through repeated silica gel column chromatography. Nine coumarins, isoimperatorin (1), osthol (2), demethylsuberosin (3), oxypeucedanin (4), heraclenin (5), pabulenol (7), umbelliferone (8), oxypeucedanin hydrate (9) and marmesinin (11), and four chromones, hamaudol (6), cimifugin (10), sec-O-glucosylhamaudol (12) and prim-O-glucosylcimifugin (13), were identified by physicochemical and spectroscopic analysis. Among these, compounds 3, 5, 6, 8, 12, and 13 were isolated for the first time from the roots of Angelica genuflexa. These coumarins and chromones were examined for their anticomplement activity. Demethylsuberosin (3) showed a weak anticomplement activity with an $IC_{50}$ value of $390\;{\mu}M$.

Three coumarins, one chromone, and a phytosterol were isolated from the stem of Ostericum koreanum. Basis on the spectral data, we determined to be the structures of isolated compounds as bergapten, xanthotoxin, auraptenol, hamaudol, and mixture of phytosterols. Auraptenol was isolated for the first time from this plant.

To investigate biological active constituents from natural products, we have studied the roots of Angelica koreana Max. (Umbelliferae). Fifteen compounds were isolated from the MeOH extract by column chromatography on a silica gel. The compounds were identified as isoimperatorin, oxypeucedanin, oxypeucedanin hydrate, osthol, nodakenin, 2-hydroxy-4-methylacetophenone, cimifugin, falcarindiol, heraclenin, pabulenol, umbelliferone, demethylsuberosin, hamaudol, sec-O-glucosylhamaudol, and prim-O-glucosylcimifugin, respectivelv, by spectroscopic means. Among these, the latter eight compounds were isolated for the first time form this plant.

Five coumarins, psoralen (1), scopoletin (2), isoimperatorin (4), (+)-marmesin (5) and xanthotoxin (6), three chromones, cimifugin (3), hamaudol (7) and sec-O-glucosylhamaudol (10), one sterol, daucosterol (8) and one aliphatic alcohol, galactitol (9) were isolated from the root of Peucedanum japonicum. Their chemical structures were identified by the physicochemical and spectroscopic data by comparing literature values. Among them, compounds 9 and 10 were isolated for the first time from this plant. The anti-inflammatory effects of isolated compounds were examined on cyclooxygenase (COX), compounds 1, 2 and 7 showed inhibitory activity on COX-1 with $IC_{50}$ values of 0.88, 0.27 and 0.30 mM, respectively. In the test for COX-2 activity, only compound 7 showed significant inhibitory activity with the $IC_{50}$ value of 0.57 mM. The other compounds exhibited weak inhibitory or no inhibitory activity.

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.
