Abstract:
The investigation of several South African Helichrysum species afforded in addition to known compounds two new kaurenic acid derivatives, three new labdane derivatives, three aromadendrene derivatives and geranylterpinene. The structures are elucidated mainly by extensive 1H NMR-studies. The chemotaxonomic importance of these findings is discussed briefly.
