Abstract
The latex of Euphorbia obtusifolia var. obtusifolia yielded twelve new dite rpene polyesters. Seven of them displayed the jatrophane framework and five were 4-deoxyphorbol esters. A further isolated tigliane diterpene, a deriv ative of 4-epi-4-deoxyphorbol, was most likely an artifact of the isolation procedure. All structures were established with the aid of spectroscopic m ethods. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
