HPLC profiles and spectroscopic data of cassane-type furanoditerpenoids.

The data presented here are related to the research paper entitled "Hydroxylated furanoditerpenoids from the pupal case produced by the bruchid beetle Sulcobruchus sauteri inside the seed of Caesalpinia decapetala" (Akihara et al., 2018) [1]. In this data article, we provide high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) profiles of seven undescribed hydroxylated furanoditerpenoids, caesalsauteolide, 2-hydroxycaesaljapin, 2,7-dihydroxycaesaljapin, 2-hydroxycaesalacetal, caesalsauterol, 6-acetylcaesalsauterol, norcaesalsauterol isolated from the pupal cases produced by Sulcobruchus sauteri and four known compounds, caesaljaponin A (Kamikawa et al., 2015) [2], caesaljaponin B (Kamikawa et al., 2015) [2], caesalacetal (Kamikawa et al., 2016) [3], and caesaljapin (Kamikawa et al., 2016; Ogawa et al., 1992) [3], [4] isolated from the cotyledons of the intact seeds of Caesalpinia decapetala. Besides, 1D NMR, 2D NMR, and HRESIFTMS data of the seven undescribed furanoditerpenoids are also presented.

Hydroxylated furanoditerpenoids from pupal cases produced by the bruchid beetle Sulcobruchus sauteri inside the seeds of Caesalpinia decapetala.

Seven undescribed hydroxylated cassane-type furanoditerpenoids were isolated from pupal cases formed from the secretion/excretion of the larvae of the wild bruchid seed beetle Sulcobruchus sauteri in infested Caesalpinia decapetala seeds, and their structures were elucidated by interpreting their spectra. The hydroxylated furanoditerpenoids found in the pupal cases were not present in the seeds of the host plant. Caesalacetal and caesaljapin obtained from the intact seeds exhibited larvicidal activity against the larvae of Aedes albopictus, while the hydroxylated furanoditerpenoids isolated from the pupal cases were inactive. The larvae of S. sauteri are proposed to detoxify larvicidal diterpenoids that occur in the seeds of the host plant by regiospecific hydroxylation.

Cassane diterpenoids from the roots of Caesalpinia decapetala var. japonica and structure revision of caesaljapin.

Two cassane-type furanoditerpenoids, designated caesalacetal and caesalpinetate, and a norditerpenoid designated caesalpinone were isolated from the roots of Caesalpinia decapetala var. japonica along with seven known diterpenoids. Structures were elucidated by interpretation of their spectroscopic data, and the absolute structure of caesalacetal was confirmed by X-ray crystallographic analysis. Furthermore, the structure of a previously reported furanoditerpenoid, caesaljapin, was revised as its C-4 epimer on the basis of detailed NMR spectroscopic data as well as X-ray crystallographic analysis.
