Two new sesquiterpenes from Laurus azorica.

The structures of a new eudesmane sesquiterpene, lauradiol, and a new secoeudesmane, azoridione, have been determined by spectroscopic methods. These compounds and the known sesquiterpenic alcohols, clovanediol and caryophyllenol II, have been isolated from the aerial parts of Laurus azorica.
