Four compounds of previously known structures, friedeline (1), 3-hydroxyglutinol (2), p-hydroxy-benzealdehyde (3), and squalene (4) were obtained from the n-hexane- and EtOAc-soluble fractions of the dried whole plants of Sasa borealis. The structures of 1-4 were identified by the interpretation of their spectroscopic data including 1D and 2D NMR as well as by comparison with previously reported values. This is the first report on the isolation of compounds 1-4 from S. borealis.
