jatrophone/euphorbia

Three new jatrophone-type diterpenoids, euphoheliosnoids A-C, together with two known related compounds, were isolated from the Chinese medicinal plant Euphorbia helioscopia L. The structures including relative stereochemistry of the new compounds were elucidated by spectroscopic methods and by

Euphoheliosnoid D (1), a new jatrophone-type diterpenoid, was isolated together with 22 known metabolites from the Chinese medicinal herb Euphorbia helioscopia L. The structure and relative stereochemistry of 1 was elucidated on the basis of spectroscopic methods. Compounds 14-23 were obtained from

The present study was designed to isolate and evaluate the antibacterial activity of the compounds from the whole plant of Euphorbia helioscopia L.. Various chromatographic techniques were used to isolate and purify the compound. The structure of the compound was elucidated on basis of spectral data
