Sigillins from Springtails Are Potent Natural Insecticides
Sigillins are highly chlorinated natural products from the springtail Ceratophysella sigillata (Collembola) that are used to deter arthropod predators. We report here the isolation and structure elucidation of sigillin F, a hydrogenated benzopyranone compound bearing two trichloromethyl groups, and the synthesis of trideoxysigillin (8), a non-natural ...
