One dihydrostilbene and three phenanthrene antioxidants were isolated from an ethanolic extract of the Chinese herbal Ephemerantha lonchophylla. One of these compounds, ephemeranthone (4) is a new natural product. Denbinobin (1) and 3-methylgigantol (3) have been previously isolated from this plant, and 3-ethoxy-5-hydroxy-7-methoxy-1,4-phenanthraquinone (2) is an artifact. The structures of these compounds were determined by spectroscopic analysis. The antioxidative activities for inhibiting human low density lipoprotein oxidation in vitro of compounds 1-4 were determined, and only 4 was active (5.3 times that of probucol).
