Abstract
Premnafulvol A (1), a unique diterpenoid featuring a 6/5/7/3-fused tetracyclic carbon skeleton, with three biosynthetically related analogues, premnafulvols B-D (2-4), were isolated from the aerial parts of Premna fulva. Structures of 1-4 were established by a combination of extensive spectroscopic analyses, quantum chemical calculations, and X-ray crystallography. Plausible biosynthetic pathways of 1-4 were proposed. Interestingly, 2 and 3 exhibited opposite effects on estrogen biosynthesis in human ovarian granulosa-like KGN cells by modulating the expression of aromatase.
