Abstract
(+)-Paeoveitol and (-)-paeoveitol, a pair of new norditerpene enantiomers, were isolated from the root of Paeonia veitchii. Their structures and absolute configurations were determined on the basis of extensive analysis of 1D and 2D NMR spectra, crystal X-ray diffraction, and electronic circular dichroism (ECD). A possible biogenesis involving two molecules of paeoniflorin was postulated.
