Abstract:
From Eupatorium cannabinum L., a hitherto unknown alpha-methylene-gamma-butyrolactone, 3 beta-peroxyeucannabinolide, was isolated. This compound and eupatoriopicrin from the same plant showed a weak sensitizing capacity in guinea pigs. 2-oxoludartin and dehydroleucodin, isolated from Kaunia rufescens (syn. Eupatorium rufescens), were strong sensitizers in the same sensitizarian procedure.
