Guaiasistanol: A new guaiane sesquiterpenoid from Teucrium persicum Boiss.

In this study, a new guaiane type skeleton sesquiterpenoid named guaiasistanol (6α, 10α—epoxy—4α—hydroxyguaiane) was isolated from chloroform part of the Teucrium persicum extract, also chrysothol. Spectroscopic means explained the structures. This compound was evaluated for inhibitory activity against acetylcholinesterase and it showed a moderate activity with 28% inhibition.
