Published: January 2021

A new rearranged clerodane-type diterpene (1), tinobaenzigeride, and a new rearranged clerodane glucoside (2) were isolated from the stems of Tinospora baenzigeri, along with four known compounds (3‒6). Their structures were elucidated by spectroscopic data analysis. In addition, the structure and configuration of 1 was confirmed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. Compound 1 are a rare example of rearranged clerodanes, since it contains a fully oxygenated tetrahydrofuran moiety. The isolated compounds were evaluated for their cytotoxicity against Hep-G2 and MCF-7 cancer cells, none of them did show any significant activity at 25 μM.

Twelve new -clerodane diterpenoids, eight undescribed methoxy/ethoxy acetal analogues, and one new -iridane monoterpenoid were isolated from . Their structures were elucidated using a combination of spectroscopic data, quantum chemical calculations, and X-ray crystallography. This research reveals the distinctive structural features of diterpenes, including distinct C rings and 4,18-double bonds, distinguishing them from diterpenes of other plants in the genus.

Phytochemical screening of an ethanol-water extract (EWE) from the bark of led to the isolation and identification of eight compounds, among them: five -clerodane diterpenoids [junceic acid (), 6()-acetoxy-15,16-diepoxy--cleroda-3,13(16),14-trien-20-oic acid (crotoguatenoic acid A) (), 6()-hydroxyoxy-15,16-diepoxy--cleroda-3,13(16),14-trien-20-oic acid (crotoguatenoic acid B) (), formosin F (), bartsiifolic acid ()], and three flavonoids [rutin (), epicatechin (), and quercetin ()]. Of these, and are reported here for the first time. Structures were established through conventional spectroscopy methods and their absolute configurations were determined by optical rotation and comparison of experimental electronic circular dichroism (ECD) and theoretical calculated ECD spectra.

The generation of the quaternary stereocenter at the C9 position of salvinorin A precursors by the Claisen rearrangement was investigated. The required allyl alcohol was prepared from a Wieland-Miescher ketone using a known γ-hydroxylation, reduction of the enone double bond, cyanohydrin formation, and elimination, yielding an unsaturated nitrile. A two-step reduction led to the required allyl alcohol.

Teucrium yemense, a medicinal plant commonly grown in Saudi Arabia and Yemen, is traditionally used to treat infections, kidney diseases, rheumatism, and diabetes. Extraction of the dried aerial parts of the plant with methanol, followed by further extraction with butanol and chromatography, gave twenty novel neoclerodanes. Their structures, relative configurations and some conformations were determined by MS and 1-D and 2-D NMR techniques.
