Clerodane diterpenoids from Casearia kurzii and their cytotoxic activities
A search for bioactive natural products as anticancer lead compounds resulted in the isolation of one previously undescribed and three known clerodane diterpenoids ( 1 – 4 ) from Casearia kurzii . The structures of these compounds were established by analysis of their NMR, MS, and electronic circula...
