Leaf-gland pigments from labiatae: structures of 16 diterpenoids (coleons and royleanones) from Coleus coerulescens GÜRKEThe Abyssinian labiate Coleus coerulescens has been investigated for its leaf-gland pigments. From the very complex mixture of abietanoic diterpenoids the following pure constituents were isolated and their structures established: (1)Diosphenols: coleon C (1a), 16-O-acetyl-coleon C (1b), coleon W (1f);(2)A/B-trans-6, 7-diketones: coleon D (2b), 16-O-acetyl-coleon D (2c), coleon V (2a);(3)Spiro-coleons: 7,12-bis(O-desacetyl)-coleon N(3a), 12-O-desacetyl-coleon N (3b), coleon O (4), 6,12-bis (O-desacetyl)-coleon R (5a), 12-O-desacetyl-coleon R (5b), 3-O-desacetyl-3-O-formyl-coleon Y (5g);(4)Royleanones: The abeo-compounds 6a, 6b, and 7.Main compounds are 3b, 5e and 5g. This is the first record of a co-occurrence of diosphenols, 6,7-dioxo-coleons, spiro-coleons and royleanones. Preliminary experiments show that solvolytic opening of the cyclopropane-ring followed by tautomerisation, oxidation to hydroxy-p-benzoquinones or elimination to quinomethanes and subsequent nucleophilic attack of the solvent leads to compounds with a 2′-substituted propyl group at C(13), thus supporting the biosynthesis of the unusual coleon E side chain.
