Helenalin
Helenalin is a sesquiterpene lactone that is 3,3a,4,4a,7a,8,9,9a-octahydroazuleno[6,5-b]furan-2,5-dione substituted by a hydroxy group at position 4, methyl groups at positions 4a and 8 and a methylidene group at position 3 (the 3aS,4S,4aR,7aR,8R,9aR stereoisomer). It has a role as an anti-inflammatory agent, an antineoplastic agent, a plant metabolite and a metabolite. It is a gamma-lactone, a cyclic ketone, an organic heterotricyclic compound, a sesquiterpene lactone and a secondary alcohol. Helenalin is a natural product found in Pentanema britannicum, Psilostrophe cooperi, and other organisms with data available. A sesquiterpene lactone that is 3,3a,4,4a,7a,8,9,9a-octahydroazuleno[6,5-b]furan-2,5-dione substituted by a hydroxy group at position 4, methyl groups at positions 4a and 8 and a methylidene group at position 3 (the 3aS,4S,4aR,7aR,8R,9aR stereoisomer).

Tenulin
Tenulin is a sesquiterpene lactone. Tenulin is a natural product found in Helenium quadridentatum, Helenium donianum, and Helenium amarum with data available.
Confertin
A natural product found in Inula hupehensis. A pseudoguaianolide that is decahydroazuleno[6,5-b]furan-2(3H)-one substituted by an oxo group at position 5, methyl groups at positions 4a and 8 and a methylidene group at position 3. It has been isolated from the aerial parts of Inula hupehensis.
Amaralin
An azulenofuran that is decahydrooxireno[1,2]azuleno[6,5-b]furan-5(1aH)-one substituted by a hydroxy group at position 8, methyl groups at positions 2 and 7a and a methylidene group at position 6.
aromaticin
A sesquiterpene lactone that is 3,3a,4,4a,7a,8,9,9a-octahydroazuleno[6,5-b]furan-2,5-dione substituted by methyl groups at positions 4a and 8 and a methylidene group at position 3. Isolated from the aerial parts of Inula hupehensis, it exhibits anti-inflammatory activity.
Fastigilin B
Ludovicin A
Carpesiolin
A sesquiterpene lactonethat is 2,3-dihydroaromaticin substituted by an alpha-hydroxy group at position 6. It has been isolated from the aerial parts of Inula hupehensis.
Bigelovin
Bigelovin is a sesquiterpene lactone that is 3,3a,4,4a,7a,8,9,9a-octahydroazuleno[6,5-b]furan-2,5-dione substituted by methyl groups at positions 4a and 8, a methylidene group at position 3 and an acetoxy group at position 4. Isolated from Inula hupehensis, it exhibits antineoplastic activity. It has a role as an apoptosis inducer, an immunomodulator, an antineoplastic agent and a plant metabolite. It is an acetate ester, an organic heterotricyclic compound, a sesquiterpene lactone, a cyclic ketone and a gamma-lactone. Bigelovin is a natural product found in Dittrichia graveolens, Inula hupehensis, and other organisms with data available. A sesquiterpene lactone that is 3,3a,4,4a,7a,8,9,9a-octahydroazuleno[6,5-b]furan-2,5-dione substituted by methyl groups at positions 4a and 8, a methylidene group at position 3 and an acetoxy group at position 4. Isolated from Inula hupehensis, it exhibits antineoplastic activity. Bigelovin, a sesquiterpene lactone isolated from Inula hupehensis, is a selective retinoid X receptor α agonist. Bigelovin suppresses tumor growth through inducing apoptosis and autophagy via the inhibition of mTOR pathway regulated by ROS generation[1].
8-Epihelenalin
A sesquiterpene lactone that is the C-8 epimer of helenalin. Isolated from the aerial parts of Inula hupehensis, it exhibits anti-inflammatory activity.
