Three new diterpenoids from Leonurus japonicus

Phytochemical investigation of the aerial parts of Leonurus japonicus led to the isolation of one unusual clerodane diterpenoid,leojaponin A(1),characterized by a C4–C7oxa-bridge,and two new labdane diterpenoids,leojaponins B(2) and C(3).The structures of these new compounds were determined based on...

Summary:Phytochemical investigation of the aerial parts of Leonurus japonicus led to the isolation of one unusual clerodane diterpenoid,leojaponin A(1),characterized by a C4–C7oxa-bridge,and two new labdane diterpenoids,leojaponins B(2) and C(3).The structures of these new compounds were determined based on extensive 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopic data.To the best of our knowledge,compound 1 is the first clerodane diterpenoid obtained from Leonurus.japonicus.All of them were evaluated for their cytotoxicity.
