Eighteen stilbenes (1-18), including six previously undescribed ones (1-6), with diverse modification patterns were isolated from the leaves of edible and medicinal plant Cajanus cajan. Among the new isolates, compounds 1-3 were initially obtained as three racemic mixtures, which were further resolved into three pairs of optically pure enantiomers, respectively, by chiral HPLC. Besides, compounds 8, 10, 11, and 18 were obtained from C. cajan for the first time. The chemical structures and absolute configurations of the new stilbenes were elucidated unambiguously on the basis of extensive spectroscopic analyses, single crystal X-ray crystallographic study, and quantum chemical electronic circular dichmism (ECD) calculations. In addition, the in vitro antiinflammatory activities of all isolated stilbenes were evaluated. Compounds 2, 9, 10, 11, and 14 exerted moderate suppression of nitric oxide (NO) secretion in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced RAW264.7 cells without exhibiting substantial cytotoxicity.
