The structure of periplanone-A was established by X-ray crystallographic analysis.In comparison of the X-ray and 1H NMR data with those of periplanone-B, it was shown that periplanone-A and -B adopt essentially the same conformation.The epoxy epimer of periplanone-A has 104-times lower biological activity than periplanone-A, and NMR analysis indicated that the molecule exists in a mixture of different conformers.The conformation of the regioisomer, in which the carbonyl and epoxy groups are transposed, was analysed by X-ray crystallography and 1H NMR spectroscopy.It is highly biologically active, and the conformation of the germacranoid skeleton was shown to be almost identical with that of periplanone-A.Simplified analogues and germacrene-D had relatively lower activity.NOE Experiments on these compounds suggested the conformational resemblance of their germacranoid skeletons with those of periplanone-A and -B.
