Abstract

AbstractA systematic phytochemical investigation on Abies forrestii afforded two new and 20 known compounds. Abieseconordines A and B (1 and 2) are the first two examples of norditerpenes with a novel 18‐nor‐5,10 : 9,10‐disecoabietane skeleton. Their structures were established mainly by analysis of 1D‐ and 2D‐NMR spectroscopic data. In addition, electronic circular‐dichroism calculations and molecular‐orbital analysis were utilized to confirm the absolute configuration of 1. Both compounds exhibited a potent effect in a bioassay inhibiting LPS‐stimulated NO production in RAW264.7 macrophages.
