Ein neues clerodan-derivat sowie weitere inhaltsstoffe aus der gattung Macowania ag

The roots of M. corymbosa afford three new benzofuran derivatives very closely related to leysseralangelicate isolated from the related genus Leyssera. The aerial parts of M. glandulosa contain, besides labdanolic acid, a new cis-clerodane derivative, its structure being elucidated by spectroscopic methods and by chemical reactions. The roots of a further Macowania species closely related to M. hamata afford a new ester related to m-thymol.
