Phytochemical investigation of Inula wissmanniana Hand.-Mazz. afforded 21 eudesmane and germacrane derivatives, including rare 4,5-secoeudesman-12,5-olide, eudesman-12,5-olide, 3,4-secoeudesman-12-oic acid, and germacra-4-en-12,6-olides. Their structures were elucidated by combinative analyses of MS, NMR, electronic circular dichroism, and X-ray crystallography data. Moreover, most of the isolates exhibited inhibition against lipopolysaccharide-induced nitric oxide production in RAW264.7 macrophages and cytotoxicity in HepG2, PC-3, and MGC-803 tumor cells.

Thirty-six structurally diverse sesquiterpenoids, including caryolanes (1-12), germacranes (13-16), isodaucane (17), cadinanes (18-22), epicubenols (23, 24), oplopanane (25), pallenanes (26, 27), and eudesmanes (28-36), were isolated from the fermentation broth of Streptomyces fulvorobeus derived from Elephas maximus feces. Pallenane is a kind of rarely reported sesquiterpene with a distinctive C5/C3 bicyclic skeleton and was firstly found from microbial source. The structures of fifteen new compounds (1-4, 13-15, 17, 18, 22, 23, 25-28) were established through detailed spectroscopic data analysis, which included data from experimental and calculated ECD spectra as well as Mosher's reagent derivative method.

Sesquiterpenes constitute the principal components of the genus , encompassing guaiane, germacrane, eudesmane, and polymer sesquiterpene lactones types. These secondary metabolites exhibit diverse pharmacological activities, including antitumor, antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, antiviral, antioxidant, hepatoprotective, and neuroprotective effects. Through a comprehensive literature search of the Web of Science, PubMed, SciFinder, and CNKI databases, it was discovered that there are as many as 145 main sesquiterpenoids in the genus .

Eleven undescribed sesquiterpenes, vachanins A-K covering types of germacrane, eudesmane, guaiacane, and cadinane, along with fifteen known analogs were isolated from the aerial parts of Artemisia vachanica Krasch. ex Poljakov. Their structures were established on the basis of HRMS and NMR data, and their absolute configurations were successfully determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis, C-NMR calculations and DP4+ probability analysis, and ECD data in corporation with quantum chemical calculations.

Trilobolide and its analogues belong to the guaianolide type of sesquiterpene lactones, which are characteristic and widely distributed within the families Asteraceae and Apiaceae. Certain guaianolides are receiving continuously increasing attention for their promising sarco-endoplasmic reticulum Ca-ATPase (SERCA)-inhibitory activity. However, because of their alkylation capabilities, they are generally toxic.

Lappanolides A-N (1-14), 14 undescribed sesquiterpenoids, along with 23 known ones (15-37), were isolated from the roots of Saussurea costus, which were primarily categorized into eudesmane, guaiane, and germacrane types. Lappanolide A (1) possessed an unprecedented pseudo-disesquiterpenoids. Their structures and absolute configurations were established using physical data analyses (HRESIMS, IR, 1D and 2D NMR) and ECD calculations.
