Abstract: | Two aldehydic C20-gibberellins, L-2 and L-4, were isolated from the immature fruits of yellow lupine (Lupinus luteus L.). L-2 was shown to have the structure II and named gibberellin A23. L-4 was identified as gibberellin A19(VI). Two new C20-gibberellins, tentatively called 3,13-dihydroxy GA15(IV) and 13-hydroxy GA15(VIII), were derived from gibberellins, A23 and A19, respectively. The biological activities of four 3,13-dihydroxy C20-gibberellins-GA18(I), GA23(II), GA28(III) and 3,13-dihydroxy GA15(IV), which were isolated from the fruits except for 3,13-dihydroxy GA15—were compared in six gibberellin bioassays. |
