  • Title: Echinopsacetylenes A and B, new thiophenes from Echinops transiliensis.
    Author: Nakano H, Cantrell CL, Mamonov LK, Osbrink WL, Ross SA.
    Journal: Org Lett; 2011 Dec 02; 13(23):6228-31. PubMed ID: 22066834.
    Abstract:
    Two new polyacetylene thiophenes, echinopsacetylenes A and B (1 and 2), were isolated from the roots of Echinops transiliensis. The structures of 1 and 2 were elucidated on the basis of spectroscopic analyses and chemical transformations. Echinopsacetylenes A (1) is the first natural product possessing an α-terthienyl moiety covalently linked with another thiophene moiety. Echinopsacetylenes B (2) is the first natural thiophene conjugated with a fatty acid moiety. Echinopsacetylene A (1) showed toxicity against the Formosoan subterranean termite (Coptotermes formosanus).
