Rastronole A,B, C,D, E,F, G und H; eine Gruppe multioxygenierter Diterpenbitterstoffe der ent-Kauran-Reihe aus Englerastrum scandens ALSTON

Rastronols A, B, C, D, E, F, G, and H, a group of multioxygenated bitter principles with ent-kaur-16-en-15-one structure from Englerastrum scandens ALSTON (Labiatae) We have isolated from the leaves of Englerastrum scandens from Kenya eight new, highly oxygenated ent-kaur-16-en-15-ones named rastronol A, B, C, D, E, F, G, and H, and determined their structures mainly by spectroscopic techniques as 1, 8, 14, 17, 20, 29, 39 , and 51 respectively.
