Five new ent-pimarane diterpenes (1-5) and five known analogs (6-10) were isolated from the aerial parts of Siegesbeckia pubescens. Their structures, including absolute configurations, were determined by comprehensive spectroscopic methods especially 1D and 2D NMR and quantum chemical electronic circular dichroism calculations. All the isolated compounds were evaluated for their cytotoxicity against human BT549, A549 and H157 cancer cell lines. Among them, compounds 1 and 2 showed mild cytotoxicity against lung cancer cell lines H157 with IC values of 16.35±2.59 and 18.86±4.83 μM, respectively.

Seven diterpenoids including five ent-cleistanthanes (1, 2, 4-6) and two ent-pimaranes (3, 7) were isolated for the first time from the aerial part of Phyllanthus franchetianus H. Lév. Their structures were elucidated on the basis of the extensive spectroscopic analyses, single-crystal X-ray diffraction and ECD analysis.

The pimarane diterpenoids, a widespread class of secondary metabolites, have been found in several dozens of plant species from various families and in organisms from other taxonomic groups. According to the different chiral centres, pimarane diterpenes can be divided into four types, including pimarane, isopimarane, -pimarane, and -isopimarane. Meanwhile, these compounds possessed many pharmacological activities, such as cytotoxic, anti-inflammatory, and antibacterial activities.

Nine undescribed diterpenoids, euphlactenoids A-I (1-9), including four ingol-type diterpenoids (1-4) with a 5/3/11/3-tetracyclic framework and five ent-pimarane-type diterpenoids (5-9), together with thirteen known diterpenoids (10-22), were identified from the leaves and stems of Euphorbia lactea Haw. The structures and absolute configurations of compounds 1-9 were unequivocally elucidated on the basis of spectroscopic analysis, ECD calculations and single crystal X-ray diffraction. Compounds 3 and 16 showed anti-HIV-1 effects with IC values of 1.
