Three Novel Biphenanthrene Derivatives and a New Phenylpropanoid Ester from <i>Aerides multiflora</i> and Their <i>α</i>-Glucosidase Inhibitory Activity

A phytochemical investigation on the whole plants of <i>Aerides multiflora</i> revealed the presence of three new biphenanthrene derivatives named aerimultins A–C (<b>1</b>–<b>3</b>) and a new natural phenylpropanoid ester dihydrosinapyl dihydroferulate (<b>...
