The NLRP3 inflammasome plays a critical role in inflammation-mediated human diseases and represents a promising drug target for novel anti-inflammatory therapies. Hispanolone is a labdane diterpenoid isolated from the aerial parts of Ballota species. This diterpenoid and some derivatives have demonstrated anti-inflammatory effects in classical inflammatory pathways. In the present study, a series of dehydrohispanolone derivatives (1-19) was synthesized, and their anti-inflammatory activities toward NLRP3 inflammasome activation were evaluated. The structures of the dehydrohispanolone analogues produced were elucidated by NMR spectroscopy and mass spectrometry. Four derivatives significantly inhibited IL-1β secretion, with 15 and 18 being the most active (IC50 = 18.7 and 13.8 μM, respectively). Analysis of IL-1β and caspase-1 expression revealed that the new diterpenoids 15 and 18 are selective inhibitors of the NLRP3 inflammasome, reinforcing the previously demonstrated anti-inflammatory properties of hispanolone derivatives.

The semi-synthetic transformation of hispanolone, isolated from Ballota africana, into βp-hydroxy-15,16-epoxylabda-8,13(16),14-trien-7-one has established an ent-labdane absolute stereochemistry for a diterpene metabolite originally isolated from B. aucheri.

On the basis of the recently reported construction of (±)-hispanolone (2), the enantiomerically pure form of (-),2, employed in our partial synthesis of the specific platelet activating factor receptor antagonist prehispanolone (3), was prepared from (S)-
