Abstract:A comprehensive phytochemical investigation of aerial parts obtained from Centaurea sicula L. led to the isolation of 14 terpenoids (1−14) and nine polyphenols (15−23). The sesquiterpenoid group (1−11) included three structural families, namely, elemanolides (1−6), eudesmanolides (7 and 8), and germacranolides (9−11) with four unreported secondary metabolites (5−8), whose structure has been determined by extensive spectroscopic analysis, including 1D/2D NMR, HR-MS, and chemical conversion. Moreover, an unprece… Show more
