The hydroazulene core of the bioactive sesquiterpenoid (-)-dehydrocostus lactone was generated by domino enediyne metathesis. A triple hydroboration/oxidation of the resultant conjugated triene installed three out of four stereogenic centers of the target in a single step. The enantiopure acyclic metathesis substrate was readily available by an asymmetric anti aldol reaction. Masking of the O-lactone as an acetal allowed for an efficient completion of the synthesis through late-stage double carbonyl olefination.

From the methanolic extract of the dried roots of Saussurea lappa Clarke, Saussureae Radix, five amino acid-sesquiterpene conjugates, saussureamines A, B, C, D and E, were isolated together with a lignan glycoside, (-)-massoniresinol 4-O-β-D-glucopyranoside. Their stereostructures were determined on the basis of chemical and physicochemical evidence. In addition, saussureamines and the related amino acid-sesquiterpene conjugates were synthesized using a Michael type addition reaction of amino acid to the α-methylene-γ-lactone moiety of sesquiterpenes. Saussureamines A, B and C, costunolide and dehydrocostus lactone showed a gastroprotective effect on acidified ethanol-induced gastric mucosal lesions in rats. Saussureamines A also exhibited an inhibitory effect on gastric mucosal lesions induced by water-immersion stress in mice. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd.

The leaves and the trunk barks of Magnolia watsonii afforded two biosynthetic intermediates of dehydrocostuslactone (watsonol A and watsonol B) along with the neolignans, magnolol, honokiol and obovatol, and the aporphine alkaloids, liriodenine and asimilobine.Key Word Index - Magnolia watsonii; Magnoliaceae; sesquiterpenes; dehydrocostuslactone; watsonol A; watsonol B; 15-acetoxycostunolide; neolignans; obovatol; aporphine alkaloids.
