Eucalyptusdimers A-C, three dimeric phellandrene-derived meroterpenoids featuring an unprecedented, fused skeleton between two phellandrene and acylphloroglucinol subunits, along with one biogenetically related intermediate, (±)-eucalyprobusone A, were isolated from the fruits of Eucalyptus robusta. Their structures absolute configurations elucidated using spectroscopic data, X-ray crystallography, electronic circular dichroism analysis. The evaluated for their anti-inflammatory, acetylcholinesterase inhibitory, protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B inhibitory effects.
