title: The structure and the stereochemistry of atractyliretin.
abstract: The nor-kaurane diterpene Atractyliretin was obtained by acid hydrolysis of Atractyloside, a toxic substance isolated from ATRACTYLIS GUMMIFERA L (Compositae). On the basis of spectral (IR, (1)H-NMR, (13)C-NMR and MS) analysis and chemical degradation its structure and stereochemistry was identified as 4.
