ABSTRACT
The CHCl3 extract of the bark and seeds of Colophospermum mopane gave three new diterpenes, dihydrogrindelic acid and dihydrogrindelaldehyde and methyl labd-13E-en-15-oate. The structures were assigned on the basis of detailed spectroscopic data analyses. The aldehyde showed significant cytotoxic activity against a human breast cancer cell line.
