Chemical constituents of Isodon melissoides.
Four new diterpenoids, melissoidesin E (1), F (2), G (4) and H (5), together with one known diterpenoid and two lignan glycosides, were isolated from aerial parts of Isodon melissoides. Their structures were established by spectral analysis and comparison with related compounds. The lignan glycosides (compounds 7 and 8) were the first examples to be isolated from the genus Isodon plants.
Ent-kaurane diterpenoids from Isodon rubescens var. rubescens.
Five new ent-kaurane diterpenoids xindongnins H-L (1-5), together with five known ones, xindongnins A and B (6, 7), melissoidesins G (8), dawoensin A (9), and glabcensin V (10) were isolated from Isodon rubescens var. rubescens. Their structures were elucidated by spectroscopic methods including extensive 2D NMR techniques.
Catalytic removal of tert-butyldimethylsilyl (TBS) ether by PVP-I
Abstract A mild, efficient and rapid protocol the deprotection of alcoholic TBDMS ethers using PVP-1 as catalyst in methanol, the procedure of deprotection of various TBDMS ethers were found to be very convenient, easy work-up, high yielding.
