New eremophilane sesquiterpenes from Cacalia ainsliaeflora.
One known eremophilanolide, 3beta-angeloyloxy-8beta,10beta-dihydroxy-6beta-methoxyeremophilenolide (1) and seven new eremophiane sesquiterpenes, 3beta-angeloyloxy-6beta-ethoxy-8beta,10beta-dihydroxyeremophilenolide (2), 3beta,6beta-diangeloyloxy-10alpha-hydroxy-8alpha-methoxyeremophilenolide, 6beta-angeloyloxy-8beta,10beta-dihydroxy-3-oxo-eremophilenolide, 6beta,8beta,10beta-trihydroxy-3-oxo-eremophilenolide, 3beta-angeloyloxy-6beta,10beta-dihydroxy-eremophila-7(11),8(9)-dien-8,12-olide (6), 3beta-angeloyloxy-10beta-hydroxy-6beta-methoxy-eremophila-7(11),8(9)-dien-8,12-olide, 3beta-angeloyloxy-8-oxo-eremophila-6.9-dien-12-oic acid ethyl ester, were isolated from the roots of Cacalia ainsliaeflora. Their structures were elucidated by spectroscopic methods. Compounds 1, 2 and 6 were assayed against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. No positive activities were observed.
