Abstract
Six new isopimarane diterpenoids, shanpanootols A-F (1–6), along with two known analogues, were isolated from the ethyl acetate-soluble extract of Kaempferia pulchra rhizomes collected in Myanmar. The structures of these compounds were elucidated by extensive spectroscopic techniques such as 1D and 2D NMR and HRESIMS. The absolute configuration of 1 was determined by the modified Mosher method. The new isolates (1–6) were tested for their Vpr inhibitory activities against TREx-HeLa-Vpr cells. Shanpanootols C (3) and E (5) inhibited Vpr at doses of 2.5 and 5 μM, respectively.
