Sesquiterpenes lactones and other constituents of Disynaphia multicrenulata from Argentina

Abstract

Flowers and leaves of Disynaphia multicrenulata from Argentina afforded a large number of known germacradienolides and heliangolides, a new germacradienolide, a known melampolide, a new parthenolide derivative, one known and seven new cronquistiolides, a new 4Z-melampolide, three known and five new eudesmanolides, a new elemadienolide, a known grazielolide, an isoguaiagrazielolide, two diepoxygermacran-8,12-olides, three common kauranoic acids, pinoresinol, jaceosidin and the sesquiterpene oplopanone. Structures were elucidated by high-held 1H NMR spectrometry. The relationship to the known chemistry of other members of the Disynaphiinae is discussed.
