Chemical investigation of the leaves and stems of Chloranthus henryi resulted in the isolation and characterization of two new eudesmane‐type sesquiterpenes, 1 and 2 , and two new germacrane‐type sesquiterpenes, 3 and 4 , together with two known compounds. The inhibitory activities against tyrosinase of all isolates were also evaluated.
