[structure: see text]. Two novel triterpene dilactones, kadsuphilactones A (1) and B (2), were isolated from the Taiwanese medicinal plant Kadsura philippinensis. The structures of 1 and 2 were elucidated on the basis of extensive spectroscopic methods, including two-dimensional NMR techniques, and confirmed by X-ray crystallographic analysis. Kadsuphilactone B (2) exhibited in vitro anti-HBV activity with IC(50) values of 6 microg/mL by HBsAg enzyme immunoassay.
