Abstract

Structures of terpendoles A, B, C and D, novel acyl-CoA: cholesterol Acyltransferase (ACAT) inhibitors, were determined by spectroscopic studies. All terpendoles consist of diterpene and indole moieties in common. Terpendoles A, C and D possess an additional isoprenyl unit via oxygen atom(s) of their diterpene moieties. The relative stereochemistries of terpendoles C and D were confirmed by NOE experiments and X-ray crystallographic analysis.
