Abstract
Four new polyacetylenes, namely chrysindins A–D (1 –4 ), together with 6 known polyacetylenes, were isolated from the flowers of Chrysanthemum indicum. Their structures were established on the basis of comprehensive spectroscopic analyses. Chrysindins A (1 ) and B (2 ) bear a novel carbon skeleton.
