The dried stem bark material of Magnolia obovata (Magnoliaceae) is known as Koh-boku. It is an important crude drug in Kampo medicine, used for the treatment of stomach ache and rush of the blood to the head, etc. From this crude drug, magnocurarine, classified as a benzylisoquinoline alkaloid, was isolated [9], in addition to sesquiterpenoids, such as a-eudesmol, and phenylpropanoids, such as magnolol. 

Magnolol 217 (Scheme 14.42), a simple antiviral BIPOL isolated from the bark of Magnolia officinalis, is readily constructed by the Negishi cross-coupling of 214 with its corresponding iodide 215, both readily obtained by DoM-transmetallation or DoM-iodination reaction, to yield 216, which, upon simple hydrolysis, affords the natural product 217 [158].
