Three new sesquiterpenoids-vetiverianines A (1), B (2), and C (3)-and a known eudesmane sesquiterpenoid (4) were isolated from the roots of Vetiveria zizanioides. Vetiverianine A (1) has a unique carbon framework comprising a rigid tricyclic ring system. Vetiverianines B (2) and C (3) are new eremophilane sesquiterpenoids. The structures of sesquiterpenoids 1-3, including the absolute configurations, were determined by NMR spectroscopic, X-ray crystallography, and vibrational circular dichroism data analysis. Vetiverianine C (3) exhibited weak cytotoxic activity against HL-60 cells.
