Abstract
This paper describes the isolation of elegansidiol (1), a new monocyclic se squiterpenic alcohol, together with the known monocyclic triterpene achille ol A (2), both from Santolina elegans. The structure of 1 was confirmed by synthesis starting from 6,7-epoxygeranyl acetate (6), constituting the firs t route towards this type of compound. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science Ltd.
