Two new aromatic compounds from the resin of Styrax tonkinensis (Pier.) Craib

Two new aromatic compounds, trans-(tetrahydro-2-(4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl)-5-oxofuran-3-yl)methyl benzoate (1), 3-(4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl)-2-oxopropyl benzoate (2) and one new natural product, 4-((E)-3-ethoxyprop-1-enyl)-2-methoxyphenol (3) together with five known aromatic compounds have been isolated from the resin of Styrax tonkinensis (Pier.) Craib. Their structures were determined by physical and spectroscopic methods.
