description (±)-Hypersines A–C (<b>1</b>–<b>3</b>), the three pairs of enantiomerically pure monoterpenoid polyprenylated acylphloroglucinols with an unprecedented 6/6/5/4 fused ring system, were isolated from <i>Hypericum elodeoides</i>. Their structures, including absolute configurations, were elucidated by comprehensive spectroscopic data, single-crystal X-ray diffraction, and quantum chemical calculations. The plausible, biosynthetic pathway of <b>1</b>–<b>3</b> was proposed. Moreover, the bioactivity evaluation indicated that <b>1a</b> might be a novel DNA damage response inhibitor, and could enhance MCF-7 cell sensitivity to the anticancer agent, camptothecin.
