Abstract

Five new polyoxygenated cyclohexenes, named uvacalol A (1), B (2), C (3), D (4) and E (5) were isolated from the roots of Uvaria calamistrata. On the basis of spectral analysis and chemical derivatization, including the preparation of Mosher esters, the structures of compound 1–5 were established as (2R,3S,4R,5S)-2-acetoxyl-5-ethoxyl-1-benzoyloxymethylcyclohex-1(6)-ene-3,4-diol-3-benzoate, (2R,3S,4R,5S)-2-acetoxyl-5-ethoxyl-1-benzoyloxymethylcyclohex-1(6)-ene-3,4-diol-4-benzoate, (2R,3S,4R,5S)-5-ethoxyl-1-benzoyloxymethylcyclohex-1(6)-ene-2,3,4-triol-3-benzoate, (2R,3S,4R,5S)-3-methoxyl-1-benzoyloxymethylcyclohex-1(6)-ene-2,3,5-triol and (2R,3S,4R,5S)-2-acetoxyl-1-benzoyloxymethylcyclohex-1(6)-ene-3,4,5-triol-5-benzoate, respectively.
