Two new terpenes from the aerial parts of Clematis chinensis Osbeck.

Two new acyclic sesquiterpenoids (1-2) and fourteen known monocyclic monoterpenoids (3-16) were isolated from the aerial parts of Clematis chinensis Osbeck. All compounds were isolated from C. chinensis for the first time. The structures of all compounds were characterized by spectroscopic methods (1 D, 2 D NMR and HRESIMS). In-vitro cytotoxic activity against two human cancer cell lines (MGC-803 and Ishikawa) of all the compounds were evaluated by CCK-8 assay.
