## Abstract From Vassoura oil (__Baccharis dracunculifolia__ DC.) the four isomeric isohumbertiols A–D (7–10), the first naturally occurring sesquiterpene alcohols with a humbertiane skeleton could be isolated and assigned unambiguously by establishing a correlation with the known cabreuva oxides A

Davanone (1) is the main component of the essential oil of Artemisia pallens (davana oil) and an important constituent of some other oils2). The stereochemistry of 1 was proven by Thomas3) and two stereoselective syntheses were published4). In 1974, Thomas 5, isolated from the same davana oil an oxidized, cyclized derivative of 1, the 2,6,6-trimethyl-2-(tetrahydro-5-methyl-5-vinyl-2-furyl)-2Hpyran-3(6H)-one (2). He suggested a cis substitution at the tetrahydrofuran ring, but there was no certainty. Eight years later Bohl-mann6' isolated from the aerial parts of A. douglasia a compound with the same structure, but also with unknown stereochemistry. He named this ketone artedouglasia oxide.

A method for the isolation and determination of terpenes from plant tissues is reported, involving extraction with methylene chloride for 24 h and quantitative analysis by gas chromatography. Relatively small masses of samples are required, the method is suitable for the analysis of large numbers of
