A biomimetic semisynthesis enables structural elucidation of selaginellin U: a tautomeric cyclic alkynylphenol from Selaginella tamariscina

Two new lactone-containing selaginellins T and U (1 and 2) together with eleven known selaginellin derivatives (3 and 7–16) were isolated from the whole plant of Selaginella tamariscina. The structure of tautomeric selaginellin U along with its biogenetic pathway was confirmed and proposed by a cros...
