- Abstract
Acylphloroglucinols are well-known Eucalyptus secondary metabolites which exhibit a variety of structures and bioactivities. The investigation of a crude acetone extract of Eucalyptus camaldulensis leaves led to the isolation of two new acylphloroglucinols, eucalypcamals O and P ( 1 and 2 ) together with seven phloroglucinols ( 3 - 9 ), and a benzene derivative ( 10 ). Their chemical structures were elucidated by 1D and 2D nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy and mass spectroscopy. The absolute configurations of compounds 1 and 2 were established by comparison of experimental and calculated electronic circular dichroism (ECD) data. In the putative biosynthetic pathway, eucalypcamals O and P should be derived from hetero-Diels-Alder reaction between grandinol and trans -isoeugenol.
