Abstract
Phytochemical investigation on Laurencia tristicha afforded eleven cuparane-derived sesquiterpenes, including ten monomers and one dimer, and their structures were elucidated by a combination of spectroscopic analysis and comparison with those reported in literature. Four compounds, laurinterol acetate, debromolaurinterol acetate, aplysinal, and (−)-α-bromocuparene were obtained from L. tristicha for the first time. Additionally, the chemotaxonomic significance of these cuparane-derived sesquiterpenes, as well as their plausible biogenetic pathway, was also discussed.
