Abstract

Eight new labdane diterpenoids were isolated from the sodium carbonate-soluble acid fraction of Acamptopappus sphaerocephalus and their structures were deduced from the spectral properties of their methyl esters and other derivatives. They are 7,E-13- or 8,E-13-labdadienes having oxygen-containing substituents at C-2, C-7, C-15 and/or C-19. These same diterpenoids were also present in A. shockleyi. Eight previously reported sesquiterpenoids, namely, bisabolene-1,4-endoperoxide, caryophyllene oxide, β-eudesmol, trans-nerolidol, 1-oxobisabolene, shiromool, spathulenol and viridiflorol, were isolated from the non-polar fraction of A. sphaerocephalus and identified by their 1H NMR spectra.
