What is The Structure of Artabsin about?
The sesquiterpene lactone artabsin, from Artemisia absinthium L., has been assigned the structure I on the basis of its relationship to isophotosantonic lactone and a degradation sequence which led to the placing of the double bonds as shown. (2,3) We have examined a specimen of 4. absinthium L. collected in Pullman, Washington, (4) the authenticity of which is supported by our isolation of artemetin (5-hydroxy-3,6,7,3',4'-tetramethoxy flavone), which has been found in this species in several previous studies. ( 5) A sesquiterpene lactone, isolated in about 0.1% yield, had properties indicating that it was the artabsin described earlier (2) (and which was at that time also isolated in 0.1% yield). Our compound had the composition C15H2003, m.p. 131-133", Amax 248 mu (log s 3.49),
