  • 10) Either 5a or 5b corresponds to nosyberkol, and the alternative one is a new compound. The compound names of both nosyberkol and isotuberculosinol are cited in the ref. 13. In this paper, we prefer to use isotuberculosinol rather than nosyberkol in the text, because we have used the name of isotuberculosinol since the first finding of 5 by us in 2004.
