(−)-6-epi-Artemisinin, a Natural Stereoisomer of (+)-Artemisinin in the Opposite Enantiomeric Series, from the Endemic Madagascar Plant <i>Saldinia proboscidea</i>, an Atypical Source

(−)-6-epi-Artemisinin, a Natural Stereoisomer of (+)-Artemisinin in the Opposite Enantiomeric Series, from the Endemic Madagascar Plant <i>Saldinia proboscidea</i>, an Atypical Source

Chemical and biological investigation of the Madagascar endemic plant <i>Saldinia proboscidea</i> led to the isolation of an isomer of artemisinin, (−)-6-epi-artemisinin (<b>2</b>). Its structure was elucidated using a combination of NMR and mass spectrometry. The absolute co...
