The title meroterpene neoaustin {systematic name: (1'S,2'R,3S,7'R,9'S,11'S,12'R)-11'-hydr-oxy-2,2,2',9',12'-penta-methyl-6',15'-dimethyl-ene-2,6-dihydro-13'-oxaspiro-[pyran-3,5'-tetra-cyclo-[7.5.1.0(1,11).0(2,7)]penta-deca-ne]-6,10',14'-trione}, C(25)H(30)O(6), comprises five rings, three six-membered and two five-membered. The absolute configuration was established based on [α(D)] = +166.91° (c 1.21, CH(2)Cl(2)). In the crystal, the mol-ecules are connected into a supra-molecular helical chain via O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds reinforced by C-H⋯O contacts.

THE TITLE MEROTERPENE PREAUSTINOID A (SYSTEMATIC NAME: methyl 15-hydr-oxy-2,6,6,10,13,15-hexa-methyl-17-methyl-ene-7,14,16-trioxotetra-cyclo-[11.3.1.0(2,11).0(5,10)]hepta-decane-1-car-box-yl-ate), C(26)H(36)O(6), features a fused four-ring arrangement. Three rings are in different distorted chair conformations and the other is in a distorted boat conformation. The absolute configuration was established based on [α(D)] = -4.97° (c = 1.10 g l(-1), CH(2)Cl(2)). In the crystal, the mol-ecules are connected into supra-molecular chains via O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds.
