Three new diterpenoids from the fruit of Vitex agnus-castus.
Three new labdane-type diterpenoids, viteagnusins F, G, and H, were isolated from the hexane extract of fruit (chasteberry) of Vitex agnus-castus L. (Verbenaceae) along with seven known compounds including four labdane-type diterpenoids, one norlabdane-type diterpenoid, one aromadendrane-type sesquiterpenoid, and one flavonoid. The chemical structures of the three new labdane-type diterpenoids were determined on the basis of spectroscopic data as well as chemical evidence.
