The structure of a new tricyclic diterpene (1) isolated from an unclassified Higginsia sp. has been determined by X-ray crystallographic methods. The structures of two related co-metabolites have been deduced from a comparison of their spectroscopic properties with those of (1).
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
