Abstract
Three new jatrophane diterpenes, esulatins A-C (1-3) were isolated and characterized from the whole, undried plant of Euphorbia esula. By me ans of spectral analysis, the structures were established as pentaeste rs and heptaesters of hitherto unknown, polyfunctional diterpene paren t alcohols. Esulatins A (1) and C (3) are the diterpenoids with the hi ghest degree of esterification identified to date from the family Euph orbiaceae.
