Abstract

A new kaurane-type diterpene lactone, tripterifordin [1], has been isolated from the roots of Tripterygium wilfordii. The structure of 1 was elucidated by spectroscopic methods, including the concerted application of a number of 2D nmr techniques that involved the 1H-1H COSY, heteronucleus-detected variants of the heteronuclear chemical shift correlation (HETCOR), phase-sensitive NOESY, and long-range HETCOR. Compound 1 shows anti-HIV replication activity in H9 lymphocyte cells with an EC50 of 1 microgram/ml.
