Article Abstract
A pair of new clerodane diterpenoid epimers, 3-methoxyl-teucvin () and 3-methoxyl-teucvin (), were isolated from the Roots of Their structures were completely established on the basis of spectroscopic methods, and the absolute configurations were determined by analysis of electronic circular dichroism (ECD) spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction analysis. Compounds and exhibited anti-inflammatory activities with IC values of 0.82 and 0.54 μM, respectively, while the IC value of dexamethasone as a positive control was found to be 0.14 μM.

Phytochemistry investigation of Euphorbia helioscopia led to the isolation of 22 diterpenoids, including five lathyranes, 11 jatrophanes, and six other types. Among them, eupholine A and B (1 and 2) are a pair of previously undescribed C-6' lathyrane epimers. The chemical structures of 1-22 were elucidated using spectral data analysis, and the absolute configurations of 1 together with another jatrophane diterpenoid (3) were determined by X-ray single-crystal diffraction techniques.

Two new labdane diterpenes, (4S,5R,10S,13S)-19-acetoxy-7-oxo-labd-8(9)-en-15-oic acid-15-methyl ester (1) and (4R,5R,10S,13S)-19-acetoxy-7-oxo-labd-8(9)-en-15-oic acid-15-methyl ester (2), along with two methyl ester derivatives of the known acid compounds, (4R,5S,9S,10R,13S)-ent-7-labden-17-acetoxy-18-hydroxy-15-oic acid (3), and (3R,5S,9S,10S,13S)-ent-7-labden-17-acetoxy-3-α-hydroxy-15-oic acid (4), were obtained from Grindelia puberula Hook & Arn, collected in northern Argentina. Their structures and absolute configurations were elucidated based on one- and two-dimensional nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, and circular dichroism analysis. The CHCl sub-extract obtained from the aerial parts of this species, along with the pure compounds, were evaluated for antifungal activity against Botrytis cinerea, a widespread necrotrophic fungal pathogen responsible for significant economic losses worldwide.

Soft corals are prolific producers of terpenoids, such as pseudopterosins. The exact biosynthetic pathway of these anti-inflammatory diterpene glycosides has eluded the scientific community for decades. Using a forward genetic approach, we have identified, cloned, and expressed the key genes involved in pseudopterosin biosynthesis.

Ryanodane diterpenes are structurally complex natural products that are well-known for their high degree of oxidation and the challenges associated with synthesizing them within the terpene class. Herein, we present a two-stage synthetic strategy that draws inspiration from the broad biosynthesis of terpenes, allowing us to achieve the first chemical synthesis of garajonone, a ryanodane diterpenoid that occurs naturally at low abundance, as well as its epimer, 3-epi-garajonone. The key to this success lies in the rapid construction of the carbon framework of the target molecule by employing an early-stage palladium-catalyzed Heck/carbonylative esterification cascade annulation, followed by successive late-stage selective redox manipulation to establish the desired oxidation state of the molecule.
