Bioassay‐guided separation of the antifungal constituents of the Chinese liverwort Marchantia polymorpha L. (Marchantiaceae) led to the isolation of seven bis[bibenzyl]‐type macrocycles. On the basis of NMR and MS analyses, the three new compounds plagiochin E ( 1 ), 13,13′‐ O ‐isoproylidenericcardin D ( 4 ), and riccardin H ( 7 ) were identified, together with four known compounds: marchantin E ( 2 ), neomarchantin A ( 3 ), marchantin A ( 5 ), and marchantin B ( 6 ). Their antifungal activities against Candida albicans were determined by TLC bioautography.
