Samaderin B and C from Samadera indica

Samaderin B, or (1R,2S,5R,5aR,7aS,11S,11aS,11bR,14S)‐1,7,7a,11,11a,11b‐hexa­hydro‐1,11‐di­hydroxy‐8,11a,14‐tri­methyl‐2H‐5a,2,5‐(methan­oxy­metheno)­naphth­1,2‐d]­oxepine‐4,6,10(5H)‐trione, C₁₉H₂₂O₇, and samaderin C, or (1R,2S,5R,5aR,7aS,10S,11S,11aS,11bR,14S)‐7,7a,10,11,11a,11b‐hexa­hydro‐1,10,11‐tri­hydroxy‐8,11a,14‐tri­methyl‐2H‐5a,2,5‐(methan­oxy­metheno)­naphth­1,2‐d]­oxepine‐4,6(1H,5H)‐dione, C₁₉H₂₄O₇, were isolated from the seed kernels of Samadera indica and were shown to exhibit antifeedant activity against Spodoptera litura third‐instar larvae. The replacement of the carbonyl group in samaderin B by a hydroxy group in samaderin C causes conformational changes at the substitution site, but the overall conformation is not affected; however, the compounds pack differently in the crystal lattice.
