โฆ Synopsis
A reinvestigation of the terpenoid constituents of the Benihi tree (Chamaecyparis formosensis Matsum., Cupressaceae) (l), grown in Formosa, has resulted in the isolationof a novel nor-sesquiterpenoid, chamaecynone (I), which exists in the non-steroid cis-decalin conformation (A) (2.3). This appears to be the first example of a natural acetylenic compound of terpenoid origin (4). Three other closely related nor-sesquiterpanoids, isochamaecynone (II), hydroxyisochsmaecynone (III) and dihydroisochamaecynone (IV) were also isolated besides some other C,, acetylenic compounds. Chamaecynone (I), colorless prisms, m.p. 92'C, (a)D -93.3' (MeOH).
