description

Abstract A crystalline compound, named stenophyllolide, obtained from an extract of Centaurea aspera var. stenophylla was shown to be 9β,15-dihydroxygermacra-1(10),4,11-trien-6α,12-olide by X-ray analysis. The molecular structure of stenophyllolide was solved with orthorhombic space group P2 1 2 1 2 1 , a = 11.719 (5), b = 13.389 (5), c = 8.646 (5) A for Z = 4, by direct methods and refined to a final R of 0.06 for 1198 observed reflections.
