Structural Revision of Garcinielliptin Oxide and Garcinielliptone E

Previously, Lin et al. reported the isolation and structural determination of two triterpenoids, garcinielliptin oxide (GO) and garcinielliptone E (GE). Their unusual structural features, which remained unparalleled in subsequent decades despite the intervening discovery of hundreds of other polycyclic polyprenylated acylphloroglucinols (PPAPs), caused us to question the originally assigned structures, so GO was reisolated from Garcinia...
