Six new diterpenoids were isolated from a CH(2)Cl(2)-MeOH extract of the bark of Suregada multiflora. The structures were established on the basis of one- and two-dimensional NMR and other spectroscopic studies and chemical derivatizations. Two compounds, suregadolides C (1) and D (2), were identified as new diterpene lactones of two antipodal series, containing a cyclopropane ring bridging C-3 and C-4 of the basic abietane skeleton. Suremulide A (3) was found to be a new abietene diterpene lactone. Bannaringaolide A (4), a diterpene lactone, based on a novel carbon skeleton with a seven-membered ring, possibly formed by the rearrangement of the exocyclic C-17 in ring C of an ent-pimarane framework, has also been isolated. A kaurane triol, suremulol A (5), and a kaurane diol, suremulol B (6), were also identified as new metabolites.

The phytochemical investigation of the leaves and the roots of Suregada procera afforded the new ent-abietane diterpenoid sureproceriolide A (1) along with the known secondary metabolites 8,14β:11,12α-diepoxy-13(15)-abietane-16,12-olid (2), jolkinolide A (3), jolkinolide E (4), ent-pimara-8(14),15-dien-19-oic acid (5), sitosterol (6), oleana-9(11):12-dien-3β-ol (7), and oleic acid (8). Their structures were elucidated by NMR spectroscopic and mass spectrometric analyses, and the structure of jolkinolide A (3) was confirmed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. Sureproceriolide A (1) showed modest activity against the Gram-positive bacterium Staphylococcus lugdunensis (MIC = 31.

The chemical investigation of a leaf extract from a herbarium specimen of collected in Banyang Mbo Wildlife Sanctuary, Southwest Region, Cameroon, yielded five undescribed abietane diterpenoids, banyangmbolides A-E, (-), and four known diterpenoids, gelomulides A (), B (), D () and O (). The structures of the isolated compounds were determined using NMR, IR, ECD and HRESIMS. Compounds , and , showed 48-55% inhibition at 200 μM against FM-55-M1 human melanoma cells.

The root extract of Baill. afforded six previously described -abietane diterpenoids, namely 7-oxo--abieta-5(6),8(14),13(15)-trien-16,12-olide (), mangiolide (), 8,14:11,12-diepoxy-13(15)-abietane-16,12-olide (), 7,11,12-trihydroxy--abieta-8(14),13(15)-diene-16,12-olide (), 8α,14-dihydro-7-oxo-jolkinolide E (), jolkinolide A (), together with 3-sitosterol (), scopoletin () and vanillin (). Their structures were deduced through 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopic techniques, and HRESIMS, as well as by comparison of the NMR data with those reported in the literature.

Context: Snake envenomation is one of the neglected health problems in Tanzania. Since most people, especially in rural areas, suffer from its burden, their cases are not documented due to reliance on medicinal plants. Despite the pivotal role of medicinal plants in treating snakebites, there is a paucity of information.
