โœฆ Synopsis


Chemical investigation of the roots of Linum usitatissimum led to the isolation and characterization of a new diterpenoid, named usitatissimin A (1), together with four known compounds. The structure of the new compound was established by spectroscopic methods, including X-ray crystallographic diffraction analysis that confirmed the relative configuration of 1. This is the first example of a diterpenoid with a novel 6/6/6/3-membered ring system of 14,15-cyclopimarane. In addition, usitatissimin A showed pronounced hepatoprotective activity against d-galactosamine-induced toxicity in WB-F 344 rat hepatic epithelial stem-like cells.
