New Diterpenes from Azorella spinosa

Antimicrobial Diterpenes from Azorella Species Against Gram-Positive Bacteria.

The present study was aimed at evaluating the antibacterial activity of mulinane and azorellane diterpenes isolated from the Andean plants Azorella compacta and A. trifoliolata and semisynthetic derivatives against reference and multidrug-resistant strains. The results revealed that the semisynthetic compound 7-acetoxy-mulin-9,12-diene (5) exhibited antibacterial activity against reference and ...

new macrocyclic diterpenes from euphorbia connata

Two New Clerodane Diterpenes from Tinospora sagittata.

Two new clerodane-type diterpenes, tinosporins C (1) and tinosporins D (2) were isolated from the stems of Tinospora sagittata (Oliv.), together with three known ones, columbin (3), tinophylloloside (4), and tinospinoside D (5). The structures of these compounds were determined on the basis of spectroscopic data interpretation, with that of the absolute configuration of compound 1 was assigned ...

New rearranged clerodane diterpenes from Tinospora baenzigeri.

Baenzigeroside B, a new rearranged clerodane diterpene glucoside, was isolated from the stems of Tinospora baenzigeri. The aglycone of baenzigeroside B, baenzigeride B (isolated as its acetate), was found together with baenzigeride A, baenzigerosides A and B in the leaves of the same plant. Baenzigeride B and baenzigeroside B are the first examples of a new class of rearranged clerodane diterpe...

Five new labdane diterpenes from Aster oharai.

Five new labdane diterpenes (1-5) together with seven known diterpenes have been isolated from a methanol extract of the aerial parts of Aster oharai. Five new structures were determined as 7alpha-hydroperoxylabda-8(17),14-dien-13(R)-ol-4-O-acetyl-alpha-L-6-deoxyidopyranoside (1), 7alpha-hydroperoxylabda-8,14-dien-13(R)-ol-4-O-acetyl-alpha-L-6-deoxyidopyranoside (2), labda-7,14-dien-13(R)-ol-4-...
