“…The extract was then subjected to normal-phase silica gel column [2 kg, CHCl 3 -MeOH (100 : 0 → 0 : 100, v/v)] to produce eight fractions. Each fraction was subjected to further separation using repeated ODS silica gel, Sephadex LH-20 column chromatography, and HPLC to give smaditerpenic acid A (1, 60 mg), smaditerpenic acid B (2, 80 mg), smaditerpenic acid C (3, 70 mg), smaditerpenic acid D (4, 70 mg), ent-kaurane-3β,16β,17-triol (5, 20 mg), [6] ent-kaurane-16β,17-diol-19-oic acid (6, 100 mg), [7] ent-kaurane-16β,17,18-triol (7, 30 mg), [8] 1-pentacosanol (8, 80 mg), [9] and 1-octacosanol (9, 52 mg). [9] Smaditerpenic acid A (1) …”
