Two new 7,20-epoxy-ent-kaurenoids, enanderianin A and B, were isolated
from the leaves of Isodon enanderianus and identified on the basis of
spectroscopic methods. The structures of the new compounds were estab
lished at 1 beta,6 beta,7 beta-trihydroxy-11 alpha,19-diacetoxy-7 alph
a,20-epoxy-ent-kaur-16-en-15-one and 1 beta,6 beta,7 beta,11 alpha-tet
rahydroxy-19-acetoxy-7 alpha,20-epoxy-ent-kaur-16-en-15-one. (C) 1998
