A new benzylbenzofuran, named 5′,7-dihydroxy-6-propenyl-2-(11′,12′-dimethylpyran)-benzylbenzofuran (1), and seven known benzylbenzofuran derivatives (2–8) were isolated from Silene conoidea L. for the first time. The structures of compounds 1–8 were identified by their spectral data and reference data. Compounds 1–8 were evaluated for anti-acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activities for the first time. Compounds 1, 2, 5, and 6 showed anti-AChE activities with IC50 values ranging from 12.55–85.43 μM.
