Twenty-eight grayanane diterpenoids (1-28) including 13 new ones, named daublossomins A-M (1-13), and two new natural products, 3-O-acetylgrayanotoxin II (14) and 10-epi-grayanotoxin III (15), were isolated from the flowers of Rhododendron dauricum L. (Ericaceae). Their structures were elucidated by means of comprehensive spectroscopic methods and quantum chemical calculations (13C NMR-DP4+ analysis and calculated ECD), and the absolute configurations of ten grayanane diterpenoids 1, 4, 5, 7, 8, 22, 23, 25, 27, and 28 were determined by X-ray crystallographic analysis. Daublossomin A (1) represents the first example of an 11,16-epoxygrayan-6-one diterpenoid. Daublossomins B (2) and C (3) are the first examples of 9ß,10ß-epoxygrayanane diterpenoids, and daublossomin I (9) is the second conjugated grayan-1(5),6(7),9(10)-triene diterpenoid. Compounds 1-11 and 13-27 were evaluated for their analgesic activities in the HOAc-induced writhing test in mice, and 1-8, 10, 11, 13, 15, 17, 18, 22-24, and 26 exhibited significant analgesic effects at a dose of 5.0 mg/kg (inhibition rates > 50%). Among them, daublossomins A (1) and F (6) still showed potent analgesic activity even at a lower dose of 0.2 mg/kg with the inhibition rates of 54.4% and 55.2%, respectively. Grayanotoxin III (20) showed more potent analgesic activities than the positive control, morphine, at a dose of 0.04 mg/kg. A preliminary structure-activity relationship for the analgesic grayanane diterpenoids was discussed, providing some useful clues to design and develop structurally novel potent analgesics.
