The naturally occurring guaianolides, namely mokko lactone (1), dehydrocostus lactone (2), eremanthin (3), and related guaianolides, 16, 17, 21, 22, 28-31, 33, 36, 37, and 39, have been synthesized starting from I-a-santonin in an effort to examine their structure-activity relationship as inhibitors of the killing function of cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) and the induction of intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1). It was observed during the present study that the guaianolides possessing an alpha-methylene gamma-lactone moiety, i.e., 2, 3, 30, 33, 37, and 39, exhibited significant inhibitory activity toward the killing function of CTL and the induction of ICAM-1.
