Two new compounds, 5-O-ethylcleroindicin D (1) and bungein A (2), together with 12 known compounds (3-14), were isolated from the aerial parts of the medicinal plant Clerodendrum bungei. The structures of 1 and 2 were elucidated as a perhydrobenzofuran derivative and a peroxide dimer by spectral and chemical evidence. Compounds 3-14 have been obtained from this species for the first time.
