We report here a convergent approach to construct the tetracyclic core of the atisane skeleton. The two segments were assembled through a Wittig reaction, while an intramolecular Aldol condensation served as the key step to furnish the tetracyclic skeleton.展开更多

Their structures were elucidated by extensive analysis of 1D, 2D NMR, and MS data.展开更多
The normally underused ^1H-^15N HMBC spectra of thirteen C18-diterpenoid alkaloids have been determined for the first time. As a result, the significant effects of the substituents of nitrogen atoms, the conformations...The normally underused ^1H-^15N HMBC spectra of thirteen C18-diterpenoid alkaloids have been determined for the first time. As a result, the significant effects of the substituents of nitrogen atoms, the conformations of A ring, and protonation, on the nitrogen-15 chemical shifts are demonstrated.展开更多
A novel endoperoxlde diterpene, 7a-hydroxy-abieta-8（14）-en-18-oi 9α,13α-endoperoxide （compound 1）, was isolated from the stems of Microtoena insuavis （Hance） Prain ex Dunn, along with 4,4＇-dlhydroxytruxillic ...A novel endoperoxlde diterpene, 7a-hydroxy-abieta-8（14）-en-18-oi 9α,13α-endoperoxide （compound 1）, was isolated from the stems of Microtoena insuavis （Hance） Prain ex Dunn, along with 4,4＇-dlhydroxytruxillic acid （compound 2）, gallic acid （compound 3）, ellaglc acid （compound 4）, 3-O-methylellaglc acid 3＇-O-α- rhamnopyranoslde （compound 5）, 3＂＇-O-methylcrenatoslde （compound 6）, crenatoslde （compound 7）, aptgenin （compound 8）, succinic acid （compound 9）, β-sitosterot （compound 10）, and β-daucosterol （compound 11）. The structures of these compounds were elucidated on the basis of spectral evidence.展开更多

文摘Atisane diterpenes are biologically interesting natural products. We report here a convergent approach to construct the tetracyclic core of the atisane skeleton. The two segments were assembled through a Wittig reaction, while an intramolecular Aldol condensation served as the key step to furnish the tetracyclic skeleton.
