Shionone
Shionone is a tetracyclic triterpenoid that is perhydrochrysene which is substituted by methyl groups at positions 1, 4bbeta, 6aalpha, 8beta, 10abeta and 12a positions, by a 4-methylpent-3-enyl group at the 8alpha position, and with an oxo group at position 2. It is a tetracyclic triterpenoid and a cyclic terpene ketone. Shionone is a natural product found in Aster baccharoides, Aster poliothamnus, and other organisms with data available. Shionone is the major triterpenoid isolated from Aster tataricus, has anti-tussive, anti-inflammatory activities[1][2]. Shionone possesses a unique six-membered tetracyclic skeleton and 3-oxo-4-monomethyl structure[1].
