Compound I was isolated from the stem bark of Warburgia ugandensis Sprague (Canellaceae) collected in Eldoret, Uasin Gishu District, Kenya. Crystals suitable for diffraction were grown from acetone/hexane/ethyl ether.
H atoms were placed in calculated positions, guided by difference maps, with C—H bond distances 0.95–1.00 Å, Uiso = 1.2Ueq of the attached carbon atom (1.5 for methyl), and thereafter treated as riding. A torsional parameter was refined for each methyl group.
The absolute configuration and space group assignment were established in part by analysis of 2776 Bijvoet pairs. Although the refined Flack parameter x = 0.4 (6) (Flack, 1983) is not definitive, the Hooft parameter y = 0.1 (3) and Hooft P2(true) = 0.998 (Hooft et al., 2008) are strong indicators that the reported configuration is correct. This configuration is consistent with that of bromo-parasiticolide A (Fukuyama et al., 1975), CCDC refcode PARASB (Allen, 2002) and with the accepted configuration of sesquiterpene lactones from higher plants (Fischer et al., 1979).

Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes. |

Coloratanolide and drimanolide sesquiterpene lactones, such as title compound I, have been isolated from the stem bark of Warburgia ugandensis Sprague (Canellaceae) as described by Wube et al. (2005). Plants of the genus Warburgia are of interest because of their use by herbalists in Kenya for the treatment of a number of parasitic diseases (Kokwaro, 1976). Compound I is the first sesquiterpene lactone to be crystallographically characterized which has the coloratanolide skeleton, (CAS 60306–54-9). The absolute configuration reported herein is based on the configuration of bromo-parasiticolide A (Fukuyama et al., 1975), CCDC refcode PARASB (Allen, 2002), and supported by analysis of 2776 Bijvoet pairs.
