Helenalin

{Azuleno[6,} 5-b]furan-2,5-dione, 3,3a,4,4a,7a,8,9,9a-octahydro-4-hydroxy-4a, 8-dimethyl-3-methylene-, {[3aS-(3a.alpha.,4.alpha.,4a.beta.,} 7a.alpha.,8.alpha.,9a.alpha.)]-

C15H18O4 (262.1205028)


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).
