Abstract : Novel oligomers viz. di-, tri-, tetra- and pentamers (2–5) of the furochromone visnagin (1) were isolated from the chloroform extract of the fresh mature seeds of the plant Pimpinella monoica. 1D and 2D NMR studies revealed a linear head-to-tail (2 + 2) pyran-furan fusion for the oligomers. NOE data and molecular modelling suggested that the higher oligomers with all syn geometry may have helicity.The di-, tri-, tetra- and pentamers of visnagin (2–5) were isolated from Pimpinella monoica. NOE data and molecular modelling suggested that the higher oligomers with all syn geometry may have helicity
