Our earliest phytochemical separation of Miliusa sinensis aided us in the isolation of a class of unique miliusanes, which were demonstrated as anticancer lead molecules. In the present study, we isolated 19 miliusanes (1–19), including 11 novel ones (5 and 10–19) from another Miliusa plant (M. bala...
