Main Results:

  • Isolation and characterization of four new neoclerodane diterpenoids, designated teumassilenins A-D.
  • Confirmation of previously reported diterpenoids from the same plant.
  • Reporting of new physical and spectroscopic data for the known diterpenoid teumassin.

Conclusions:

  • The diterpenoid profile of Teucrium massiliense L. is complex and includes novel neoclerodane derivatives.
  • The structural elucidation provides valuable data for understanding diterpenoid diversity in the genus Teucrium.
  • Further studies may elucidate the biogenetic pathways and potential bioactivities of these compounds.
