Five new diterpenoids from Pseudolarix kaempferi

Abstract

Five new diterpenoids, pseudolaric acids F (1), G (2), and H (3), 2',3'-dihydroxy-1'-propoxypseudolarate B (4), and 6'-O-acetylpseudolaric acid B O-beta-D-glucopyranoside (5), along with nine known diterpenoids, pseudolaric acids A, B, and C(1), deacetylpseudolaric acid C(2), deacetylpseudolaric acid A, methyl pseudolarate A, methyl pseudolarate B, pseudolaric acid A-O-beta-D-glucopyranoside, and pseudolaric acid B-O-beta-D-glucopyranoside, were isolated from the root bark of Pseudolarix kaempferi. Their structures and stereochemistry were elucidated mainly by spectral data, especially 2D NMR techniques.
