Abstract

Two new abietane-type pigments named tanshinol A (1) and tanshinol B (2) have been isolated from the roots of Salvia miltiorrhiza B. (Labiatae) as minor components together with sixteen other related tanshinone pigments 3-18. The structures of the two novel components 1 and 2 were established by means of spectral analyses.
