Abstract

Commiphoranoids A–E (1–5), five novel sesquiterpenoids, dinorditerpenoids, and heterodimers with unprecedented carbon skeletons, were isolated from Resina Commiphora. The structure of 1 was secured by X-ray crystallography. Compound 4 represents the first example of C38 terpenoids, whereas 5 is a C30 terpenoid formed by two types of sesquiterpenoids. These metabolites possess lipid regulatory activities via activating PPARα and CPT1.
