Cuspidans A and B, two new stilbenoids from the bark of Gnetum cuspidatum.

: Cuspidan A (1), a new stilbene sestermer consisting of a resveratrol, an oxyresveratrol, and a 3,5-dihydroxyphenylmethanol constituent units and cuspidan B (2), a new tri-cyclic stilbene monomer were isolated from the bark of Gnetum cuspidatum. The structures and configurations of 1 and 2 were elucidated on the basis of 2D-NMR correlations.
