Abstract:
The investigation of Pulicaria scabra afforded in addition to known compounds seven new caryophyllane derivatives, three of them etherified with a caryophyllane derivative and one esterified with a caryophyllane derived alcohol. The structures were elucidated by high field 1H NMR spectroscopy. The chemistry of this species is similar to that of P. dysenterica but differs from that of the other genera of the subtribe Inulinae.
