Structure confirmation of a bioactive lactone isolated from Otoba parvifolia through the synthesis of a model compound

J Nat Prod. 2004 Nov;67(11):1939-41. doi: 10.1021/np049771x.

Abstract

Synthesis of a model compound 4 structurally related to a bioactive lactone 3 isolated from Otoba parvifolia has been accomplished. The good match between the NMR data of both compounds suggests they have identical bicyclic [3.3.1] carbon skeletons.
