title: Sinaicinone, a complex adamantanyl derivative from Hypericum sinaicum.
abstract: The structure of sinaicinone, isolated from the aerial parts of the Egyptian medicinal plant Hypericum sinaicum, has been elucidated by means of spectroscopic data such as UV, IR, MS, 1D and 2D NMR spectra, and chemical degradation. It is a complex adamantanyl derivative with a unique skeleton and oxygenated side chains.
