Ceriopsins A-D, diterpenoids from Ceriops decandra.
Chemical examination of the ethyl acetate solubles of the CH(3)OH:CH(2)Cl(2) (1:1) extract of the roots of Ceriops decandra collected from Kauvery estuary resulted in the isolation of four new diterpenoids, ceriopsins A-D (1-4). The structures of the new diterpenoids were elucidated by a study of their physical and spectral data as methyl 17-hydroxy-16-oxobeyeran-18-oate (1), methyl 16(R)-16,17-dihydroxybeyeran-18-oate (2), 1 beta,15(S)-isopimar-7-ene-1,15,16-triol (3), and 8,15(R)-epoxypimarane-1 beta,16-diol (4).
