Popis: One flavonoid (quercetin, 1) and three dihydrochalcones (6''-O-p-hydroxybenzoyl-davidioside, 2, 4'-O-methyl-davidioside, 3, and davidioside, 4) were isolated from the leaves and young branches of Viburnum davidii Franch. All the structures were identified by comparison of their spectroscopic data (NMR and MS) with those present in literature. In addition, compounds 2–4 were evaluated for their cholinesterase inhibitory (ChEI) activity, for the first time. Accordingly, compounds 2 and 4 showed significant inhibition of both acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) with IC50 values equal to 36.883 and 39.274 µM, respectively for the former and 39.504 and 43.101 µM, respectively for the latter.
