| Abstract: | Four new eremophilanolides, isolated from Ligularia sagitta, were identified as (1β,3β,6β,8β,10β)‐6‐acetoxy‐3‐(angeloyloxy)‐1,10‐epoxy‐8‐hydroxyeremophil‐7(11)‐en‐8,12α‐olide ( 1 ), (1β,3β,6β,8β,10β)‐3‐(angeloyloxy)‐1,10‐epoxy‐6,8‐dihydroxyeremophil‐7(11)‐en‐8,12α‐olide ( 2 ), (1β,3β,6β,8β,10β)‐3‐(angeloyloxy)‐1,10‐epoxy‐8‐ethoxy‐6‐hydroxyeremophil‐7(11)‐en‐8,12α‐olide ( 3 ), and (1β,3β,8β,10β)‐3‐(angeloyloxy)‐1,10‐epoxy‐8‐hydroxyeremophil‐7(11)‐en‐8,12α‐olide ( 4 ). Their structures were elucidated by spectroscopic methods, including 2D‐NMR techniques and chemical transformations. |
