Abstract

From Hypochoeris glabra two guaianolides esterified with an unusual sesquiterpenic acid were isolated. Proton-catalysed rearrangement of the cyclopropane derivative led to a phenolic acid. The structures were elucidated by high-field 1H NMR spectroscopy. Further guaianolides were isolated from H. uniflora and Lactuca floridana. These structures were elucidated by spectroscopic methods. The chemotaxonomic situation in the tribe is discussed briefly.
