Summary
From the neutral fraction of the resin of the roots ofFerula karatavica Rgl. et Schmalh. an optically inactive coumarin, karatavicin, C24H30O5, has been isolated; it is an ether of umbelliferone and a sesquiterpene aliphatic ketodiol. Two possible structural formulae (I) and (II) have been proposed for karatavicin.
