Commiphoins A-C (1-3), three new cadinane-type sesquiterpenes, together with two known cadinane-type sesquiterpenes (4 and 5) were isolated from the resinous exudates of Commiphora myrrha. Their structures and relative configurations were established on the basis of comprehensive spectroscopic methods, including HRESIMS, 1D and 2D NMR analyses. Compounds 1 and 3-5 were screened for anti-Alzheimer's disease (AD) activities using the AD pathological model in Caenorhabditis elegans. The results showed that they all had significant anti-AD activities.

A new cadinane-type sesquiterpene glucoside, 10-hydroxy, 1(H), 6(H), 7(H), 8(H)-cadinane-4-en-8-O--D-glucoside () as well as, 2 known analogues [sinaicin ()- linichlorinA ()], were isolated from the CHCl:MeOH organic extract of . Chemical structures of all isolated compounds were established depending upon the spectroscopic data including, 1D and 2D NMR and HRMS. Colo-205 (colorectal cancer), HepG2 (hepatocellular carcinoma) and MCF-7 (breast adenocarcinoma) and cancer cell lines were used to test the cytotoxic potential of the isolated compounds (-).

Syzygioblanes A-C (-), isolated from the Indonesian traditional herbal medicine (), are meroterpenoids with a spiro ring formed through a [4 + 2] cycloaddition of the flavanone desmethoxymatteucinol with cyclic sesquiterpenoids. Our ongoing phytochemical investigation of resulted in the isolation of five additional spiro-meroterpenoids, syzygioblanes D-H (-), which are hybrids of the same flavanone with eudesmane/cadinane-type sesquiterpenoids. A possible biosynthetic pathway involves enzymatic dearomative hydroxylation of desmethoxymatteucinol followed by [4 + 2] cyclization of the resulting diene with a cyclic sesquiterpene containing an exocyclic methylene to form the unique spiro ring in the syzygioblane molecule.

Fifteen undescribed sesquiterpenoid monomers, including six pairs of sesquiterpenoid enantiomers (1a/1b-3a/3b and 5a/5b-7a/7b) and three analogues (4, 8, and 9), together with two known sesquiterpenoid dimers (10 and 11) were isolated from the whole plant of Chloranthus henryi Hemsl. Their structures were characterized by spectroscopic data analysis, ECD calculations, and single crystal X-Ray diffractions. Compounds 1a and 1b were highly aromatic cadinane-type sesquiterpenoids.

Ten new cadinane-type sesquiterpenoids, named hibisceusins I-R (-), along with 14 known sesquiterpenoids (-), were acquired from the tainted stems of . Their structures were identified via spectroscopic analysis, one-dimensional (1D) and two-dimensional (2D) NMR, and computer-assisted structure elucidation techniques, including infrared (IR) and mass spectrometry (MS) data. Additionally, subsequent DP4/DP4+ probability methods were used to resolve 's relative configurations by comparing their experimental values to the predicted NMR data.
