Abstract
Two new polyprenylated acylphloroglucinols, (1S,32R,5S,6R,7R)-6-((R)-3,4-di-hydroxy-4-methylpentyl)-2-(2-hydroxypropan-2-yl)-7-isobutyryl-6-methyl-5,9-bis(3-methylbut-2-en-1-yl)-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-2H-32,7-methanocycloocta[b]furan-8,10(3H)-dione (1) and (4R,5R,7R)-4-((R)-3,4-dihydroxy-4-methylpentyl)-2,2,4-trimethyl-5,7-bis(3-methyl-but-2-en-1-yl)-7-(5-methylhex-4-enoyl)-4,5,6,7-tetrahydrobenzofuran-3(2H)-one (2) were isolated from Hypericum scabrum. The structures were elucidated by means of spectroscopic methods, including MS, IR, NMR, OR, and CD.
