Abstract

Glabralides A–C (1–3), three novel meroterpenoids including two unprecedented skeletons were isolated from the whole plants of Sarcandra glabra. Glabralide A (1) represented a unique skeleton of the chalcone-coupled monoterpenoid, bearing a bicyclo [2.2.2] octene core unit with five chiral centers. The structures were established by spectroscopic methods, including 2D NMR experiments, and the absolute configurations were determined using circular dichroic (CD) spectra. The plausible biogenetic pathway for 1 suggested that α-phellandrene was conjugated with chalcone by Diels-Alder cyclization, and for 3 implied that α-phellandrene and o-hydroxy phenylacetate cyclized by an uncommon radical addition and cationic cyclization.
