- Volatile components from European liverworts Marsupella emarginata, M. aquatica and M. alpina
-
The hydrodistillation products of the liverworts Marsupella emarginata, M. aquatica and M. alpina were investigated by spectroscopic methods. A number of new compounds could be isolated by preparative gas chromatography (GC) and identified by spectroscopic techniques including GC-mass spectrometry, NMR and chemical correlations in conjunction with enantioselective GC. From M. emarginata, in addition to many known compounds, the sesquiterpene hydrocarbon (-)-7-epi-eremophila-1(10),8,11-triene (1) and the sesquiterpene derivatives (-)-4-epi-marsupellol (2), (-)-marsupellol acetate (18), (-)-4-epi-marsupellol acetate (4), (+ )-5-hydroxymarsupellol acetate (5) and (-)-9-acetoxygymnomitr-8(12)-ene (24) could be identified. In M. aquatica the sesquiterpene hydrocarbons (-)-myltayl-8(12)-ene (7), ent-(+)-amorpha-4,11-diene (8), (-)-amorpha-4,7(11)-diene (9), the sesquiterpene alcohol (+)-9-hydroxyselina-4,11-diene (10) and (-)-2-acetoxyamorpha-4,7(11)-diene (11) were identified. In M. alpina (-)-trans-selina-4(15),11-dien-5-ol (12), (+)-8,9-epoxyselina-4,11-diene (13) and (+)-cis-selina-4(15),11-dien-5-ol (14) were found as new natural products.

- Identification of the Bicyclic Sesquiterpenes Drimane and Eudesmane in Petroleum
-
Drimane and Eudesmane have been identified in Petroleum; eudesmane is formed from higher plant precursors while drimane is probably derived from microbial source.
