Five New Diterpenoids, Viteagnusins A-E, from the Fruit of Vitex agnus-castus

Abstract

Two new halimane-type diterpenoids, viteagnusins A and B, and three new labdane-type diterpenoids, viteagnusins C, D, and E, were isolated from the fruit of Vitex agnus-castus L. (Chasteberry, Verbenaceae) along with two known diterpenoids. Their chemical structures were determined on the basis of spectroscopic data.
