Notes:
The structure of orobanchol, a new seed germination stimulant for clover broomrape (Orobanche minor), was proposed as 5a (tentative absolute configuration) on the basis of GC-MS comparison of the natural product with several synthetic compounds [(±)-4a-(±)-4h, (±)-5a and (±)-5b]. All of the synthetic compounds showed significant seed germination activities for Orobanche minor and witchweed (Striga asiatica).
