Three new sesquiterpenes, 1beta-hydroxy-8beta-acetoxycostic acid methyl ester, 1beta-hydroxy-8beta-acetoxyisocostic acid methyl ester and 1beta-hydroxy-4alpha,11alpha-eudesma-5-en-12,8beta-olide, along with fourteen known compounds were isolated from the aerial parts of Inula japonica. The structures of these new compounds were elucidated by spectroscopic methods (IR, EIMS, HRMS, 1D and 2D NMR). 1,6alpha-dihydroxy-4alphaH-1,10-secoeudesma-5(10),11(13)-dien-12,8beta-olide exhibited appreciable cytotoxic activity against cultured SMMC-7721 (human hepatoma cell) and HO-8910 (human ovarian carcinoma cell) with IC 50 values of 52.22 and 21.32 microg/mL, while 5alphaH-eudesma-4(15),11(13)-dien-12,8beta-olide showed remarkable cytotoxic activity against cultured SMMC-7721 and HO-8910 with IC 50 values of 6.21 and 5.28 microg/mL, respectively.
