Abstract

Isetexane diterpene analogues were semisynthesized from demethylsalvicanol isolated from Perovskia abrotanoides (Labiatae). The structure and cytotoxic activity relationships (SAR) of the natural parent diterpene, demethylsalvicanol, and its semisynthetic analogues were studied by using P388 murine leukemia cells.
