Three new cassane furanoditerpenoids ( 1- 3), together with 13 known cassane diterpenes ( 4- 16), were isolated from the EtOAc extract of the seed kernels of Caesalpinia bonduc. Their structures were elucidated on the basis of spectroscopic analysis, mainly NMR and MS. Compounds 1- 3 exhibited good antimalarial activity against the multidrug-resistant K1 strain of Plasmodium falciparum, while compound 4 was inactive. None of the compounds were cytotoxic against any of the tumor cell lines tested.

We report the first and enantioselective total syntheses of (+)-1-deacetylcaesalmin C, (+)-δ-caesalpin, (+)-norcaesalpinin MC, and (+)-norcaesalpinin P. Salient features of the synthetic strategy are an exo-selective intramolecular Diels-Alder reaction of a furanoquinone monoketal and subsequent chemoselective reduction of the resulting pentacyclic furfuryl ketal, furnishing a keystone intermediate. The latter enables access to the collection of natural products through implementation of stereoselective oxidations.

Seven undescribed hydroxylated cassane-type furanoditerpenoids were isolated from pupal cases formed from the secretion/excretion of the larvae of the wild bruchid seed beetle Sulcobruchus sauteri in infested Caesalpinia decapetala seeds, and their structures were elucidated by interpreting their spectra. The hydroxylated furanoditerpenoids found in the pupal cases were not present in the seeds of the host plant. Caesalacetal and caesaljapin obtained from the intact seeds exhibited larvicidal activity against the larvae of Aedes albopictus, while the hydroxylated furanoditerpenoids isolated from the pupal cases were inactive.

Two cassane-type furanoditerpenoids, designated caesalacetal and caesalpinetate, and a norditerpenoid designated caesalpinone were isolated from the roots of Caesalpinia decapetala var. japonica along with seven known diterpenoids. Structures were elucidated by interpretation of their spectroscopic data, and the absolute structure of caesalacetal was confirmed by X-ray crystallographic analysis.
