Labdane is a natural bicyclic diterpene. It forms the structural core for a wide variety of natural products collectively known as labdanes or labdane diterpenes. The labdanes were so named because the first members of the class were originally obtained from labdanum, a resin derived from rockrose plants.[1][2]
A variety of biological activities have been determined for labdane diterpenes including antibacterial, antifungal, antiprotozoal, and anti-inflammatory activities.[3]
Examples
- Forskolin
- Stemodene
- Isocupressic acid, a labdane diterpenoid, is an abortifacient component of Cupressus macrocarpa.[4]
