ABSTRACT
Przewalskin A (1), a novel C23 terpenoid with a 6/6/7 carbon ring skeleton, was isolated from Salvia przewalskii. Its structure was determined by comprehensive 1D NMR, 2D NMR, and MS spectroscopic analysis and subsequently confirmed by a single-crystal X-ray diffraction study of its PDC oxidation derivative (2). Compounds 1 and 2 showed modest anti-HIV-1 activity with EC50 = 41 and 89 microg/mL, respectively.
