Neue diterpene und neue dihydrochalkon-derivate sowie weitere inhaltsstoffe aus Helichrysum-arten

The investigation of 25 further Helichrysum species afforded in addition to known compounds a new diterpene, an oxo-geranyllinalol, a second one, most probably a cembrene derivative, and three dihydrochalkone derivatives. The distribution of the constituents in South African Helichrysum species is discussed briefly.     

Neue phloroglucin-derivate aus Leontonyx-arten sowie weitere verbindungen aus vertretern der tribus inuleae

The investigation of several South African species of the tribe Inuleae afforded in addition to known compounds 16 new constituents. From Leontonyx a group of 9 new phloroglucinol derivatives, from Stoebe species two new p-hydroxyacetophenone, two thymol and two coumaric acid derivatives and from Relhania a new euparine-derivative were isolated. The structures are elucidated mainly by spectroscopic methods. The chemotaxonomic aspects are discussed briefly. The phloroglucinol derivatives, which in part are derived from geraniol, seem to be especially characteristic.     

Terpen-derivate aus Senecio-arten

Investigation of about 50 Senecio species has afforded many new substances, in addition to known compounds. Present in these plants are 23 fura     

Trixikingolides and germacrene derivatives from Trixis species

The investigation of two further Trixis species afforded five new sesquiterpenes related to trixikingolide, six new germacrene derivatives and a sesquiterpene derived from rotundene. Some further known compounds were isolated too, which in part may be of chemotaxonomic significance. The structures were elucidated by spectroscopic methods and a few chemical transformations. The relative position of the ester groups in eight of the new sesquiterpenoids however, could not be established with certainty as partial saponifications were not successful.     

New labdane derivatives and further constituents of Brickellia species

The investigation of several Brickellia species and two further related species afford besides known compounds four new labdane derivatives, a new acetylenic carbinol and a new dihydrobenzofuran derivative. The structures have been elucidated by spectroscopic methods. The chemotaxonomic aspects are discussed briefly.     

Cis-Kolaveninsäure und weitere inhaltsstoffe aus vertretern der tribus eupatorieae

The investigation of further species of the tribe Eupatorieae afforded in addition to already known compounds two new diterpenic acids, three euparine derivatives, two chromenes and two guaianolides closely related to known structures. The results show again the complexity of the tribe; however, some chemotaxonomic lines are visible.     

Neuartige ester von eremophilen-derivaten aus südafrikanischen Senecio-arten

The investigation of three further South African Senecio species afforded, in addition to known compounds, 11 new eremophilenes and two new eud
