Abstract:

Chemical examination of the needles and young stems of Taxus baccata L. from Iran, resulted in the isolation of three taxane diterpenoids , two previously reported taxoids, taxupinanane L and taxupinanane G, and a new taxoid, 2,9-deacetyltaxinine J. The structures of these compounds were determined on the basis of spectroscopic data. These three taxoids were not previously encountered in Taxus baccata L. species.
