The first phytochemical investigation from the stems of Croton krabas resulted in the isolation of three new ent-clerodane diterpenoids, crotonkrabases A-C (1-3), along with two known compounds, 12-oxohardwickiic acid (4) and crotonpyrone B (5). Their structures were elucidated using extensive spectroscopic methods. The structure of 3 was unambiguously proven by X-ray crystallography. Furthermore, the absolute configurations of compounds 1-3 were identified by NOESY and the comparison of their experimental ECD spectra with those of calculated ECD spectra reported in the literature. Compounds 1, 2, and 5 showed antibacterial activities against two Gram-positive bacteria (Bacillus cereus and Bacillus subtilis); whereas compound 4 exhibited weak antibacterial against B. cereus. In addition, compound 4 showed potent α-glucosidase inhibitory activity, which was lower than the reference standard acarbose.

Scoparodane C (1), a diterpenoid with a rare 3,4-seco-3-nor-2,11-epoxy-ent-clerodane scaffold, was obtained from the aerial parts of Isodon scoparius, along with isocopariusines A-E (2-6), five ent-clerodanoids featuring a 5/6-fused ring system, and isocopariusines F-H (7-9), three common ent-clerodanoids. The structures of these previously undescribed compounds were established by a combination of spectroscopic analysis, X-ray diffraction, chemical derivatization, and quantum chemical calculation. Remarkably, isocopariusine B (3) showed strong resistance reversal activity against fluconazole-resistant Candida albicans.

Fourteen diterpenes were isolated from methanol extracts of the aerial parts of, "Marginatus", and . The compounds belong to the abietane (-, -, and ), -clerodane (-), and -kaurane (, ) classes. Three new compounds were isolated from , including 3--acetylornatin G (), 3,12-di--acetylornatin G (), ornatin B methyl ester (), and ornatin F (), for which we proposed a revised structure.

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.
