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. The absolute configurations of compounds - were measured through electronic circular dichroism (ECD) spectra. The ability of all isolates to inhibit the growth of five phytopathogenic fungi (, Kleb., , Schltdl., and HK-27) was evaluated. Aldehydated sesquiterpenoids (, -, , , and ) and a known sesquiterpenoid quinine () exhibited significant inhibitory activities against , , , and HK-27 with minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values of 2.5-50 μg/mL, but all isolates remained inactive against . Moreover, the effects of the isolates on the mycelial morphology were watched through scanning electron microscopy. This study revealed that aldehydated cadinane-type sesquiterpenoids could be used as novel antifungal molecules to develop agrochemical fungicides in plant protection.

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.
