Abstract

A sesquiterpene lactone of the germacrane series, mucrochin, has been isolated from the epigeal part ofTanacetopsis mucronata, and its structure has been studied by IR and mass spectral methods and PMR spectroscopy. It structure has been determined unambiguously by x-ray structural analysis as 5,6-dihydroxy-5α,6β,7α,8β(H)-germacra-1(10),4(15) 1(13)-trien-8,12-olide. A boat-chair conformation with a configuration of the1D1415D5 type has been established.
