Two new anthraquinone glucosides [chrysophanol 8-O-beta-D-(6'-galloyl)-glucopyranoside, aloe-emodin 1-O-beta-D-glucopyranoside] together with various known stilbenes and their glucosides, anthraquinone glucosides, and a naphthalene glucoside were isolated from the rhizome of Rheum undulatum L. Three

By bioassay-guided separation, three stilbenes (rhapontigenin, piceatannol, and resveratrol), two stilbene glucoside gallates (rhaponticin 2"-O-gallate and rhaponticin 6"-O-gallate), and a naphthalene glucoside (torachrysone 8-O-beta-D-glucopyranoside) with inhibitory activity against nitric oxide
