Examination of the aerial portions of Cleome spinosa yielded five new cembranes, named cleospinols A (1), B (3), C (4), and D (5), and the 3'-hydroxy-iso-pentan-10-oate ester of cleospinol A (2). The cleospinols were determined to be derivatives of 10,13-dihydroxy-4,12-dimethyl-1-(1-methylethenyl)-11(E)-cyclotetradecene on the basis of spectroscopic data interpretation.

Sclareol, a diterpene alcohol, is the most common starting material for the synthesis of ambrox, which serves as a sustainable substitute for ambergris, a valuable fragrance secreted by sperm whales. Sclareol has also been proposed to possess antibacterial, antifungal, and anticancer activities. However, in nature, sclareol is only produced by a few plant species, including , , , and , which limits its commercial application.
