Abstract :
[en] Methanolic extracts of soldiers of Nasutitermes guayanae and N. surinamensis have been shown to contain complex mixtures of diterpenes and monoterpenes. Eighteen diterpenes have been isolated and identified; twelve of them are previously known nasute termite diterpenes, while six are new trinervitene diterpenes. 2 alpha,9 beta-Dihydroxy-3 beta,8 beta-oxido-1(15)-trinervitene (1) has been isolated from N. guayanae, while 3 alpha,14 alpha-diacetoxy-2 beta-hydroxy-1(15),8(19),9-trinervitatriene (3), 14 alpha-acetoxy-2 beta,3 alpha-dihydroxy-1(15),8(19),9-trinervitatriene (4), 2 beta,3 alpha-diacetoxy-11 beta,14 alpha-dihydroxy-1(15),8(19)-trinervitadiene (5), 9 alpha,14 alpha-diacetoxy-2 beta,3 alpha-dihydroxy-1(15),8(19)-trinervitadiene (6), and 2 beta,9 alpha,14 alpha-triacetoxy-3 alpha-hydroxy-1(15),8(19)-trinervitadiene (7) have been isolated from N. surinamensis. Their structures were determined on the basis of their spectroscopic properties.
