Gamma-lactones and ent-eudesmane sesquiterpenes from the endophytic fungus Eutypella sp. BCC 13199.

30 Aug 2009 Two new gamma-lactones, eutypellins A (1) and B (2), and two ent-eudesmane sesquiterpenes, ent-4(15)-eudesmen-11-ol-1-one (3) and ent-4(15)-eudesmen-1alpha,11-diol (4), together with three known pimarane diterpenes, diaporthein B, scopararane A, and ... Read more...

Inhibitors of osteoclast formation from rhizomes of Cibotium barometz.

30 Aug 2009 Eight compounds (1-8) were isolated from a methanol extract of Cibotium barometz rhizomes including two new furan derivatives, cibotiumbarosides A (1) and B (2), and a new glycoglycerolipid, cibotiglycerol (4). Their structures were elucidated by ... Read more...

Pandanus alkaloids in Stemonaceae: finding of a plausible biogenetic origin of Stemona alkaloids.

30 Aug 2009 The isolation of (Z,Z)-pandanamine (1) and its corresponding isomers (Z,E)-pandanamine (2) and (E,E)-pandanamine (3) from Stichoneuron calcicola of the family Stemonaceae is of outstanding chemosystematic importance. This alkaloid was previously ... Read more...
