## Abstract Assignments of the ^13^C NMR resonances for some cassane diterpenoids have been made. The data have proved to be a useful tool for the stereochemical examination of the caesalpins.

✦ Synopsis
The isolation 1,2 and structural eluoidation20f a-, $-, y-and Ocaesalpins from the seeds of Coesrloinia bonduoella have been reported. We have isolated, from the same source, 8 new crystalline compound, s-csesalpin, which is assigned structure(I)(or enantiomer) on chemical and SpeCtrOScOpic evidence. This is confirmed by an X-ray analysis of the p-bromobenzoste(II)which, in addition, establishes the stereochemistry at the remaining asymmetric centres and the absolute configuration as in(III). c-Caesslpin C24H3407, m.p. 191-194', [al, +2', shows in its n.m.r. spectrum a 2,3 disubstituted furan ring [H-16, v 2*77; H-15, v 3*61; both doublets, J = 2 c./sec.], two secondary acetates [v 8*10, 7.94 (2Cg3COO-); 4*76, doublet and 4.7, multiplet (2%gOAc)1 8nd four tertisryc-methyl

The constitution of rimuene has been the subject of protracted controversy in recent years and indeed represents an outstanding unsolved problem in diterpene chemistry. Our recent interest in the constituents of Erythroxylon monogyuum (1) has caused us to re-e xamine the published evidence on rimue
