Summary

  1. 1.

    The structure of 2′,3′,4′,1″,2″,3″-hexamethoxy-6,7-dimethyl-1,2: 3,4-dibenzo-1,3-cyclooctadien-6-ol is proposed for schizandrin.

  2. 2.

    It is suggested thatγ-schizandrin has the same carbon skeleton.

  3. 3.

    A probably biogenetic scheme for the formation of compounds of this type is given.
