Abstract
Reported herein is the X-ray crystallographic structure of a novel 10- oxygenated secotrinervitane diterpene, 3 alpha,10 a-diacetoxy-7,16-sec otrinervita-7,11,15(17)-triene (4), from soldiers of the endemic Madag ascan termite Nasutitermes canaliculatus, which was compared with an e nergy-minimized structure obtained by computer molecular modeling. We also report H-1- and C-13-NMR and MS data for this new diterpene.
