- Description
- The isolation and structure determination of dubiin and leonitin, two new diterpenoid acetates from Leonotis dubia and Leonotis leonitis respectively, are discussed. The compounds are diterpenoids of the labdane type and are closely related to marrubiin. The proposed structures are based on chemical and spectral evidence. Dubiin, C₂₂H₃₀0₆̕ contains a tertiary hydroxy- group, a furan ring and a ó-lactone while leonitin, C₂₂H₃₀0₇̕ is a γ - dilactone. at C-20. Both compounds are unusual in being oxygenated The extraction of three Euryops species and the isolation of euryopsol, C₂₂H₃₀0₄̕̕ are also described. A furanoeremophilane structure containing three hydroxy- groups, one of which is at a bridgehead position, is proposed. Euryopsol is the first furanoeremophilanoid with a substituent attached at C-IO
