• Euphorbia peplus has been used in traditional medicine to treat asthma and psoriasis. Three highly modified diterpenoids, namely, pepluacetal (1) and pepluanol A–B (2–3), have been isolated and identified from this plant. Compounds 1–3 exhibit unprecedented 5/4/7/3, 5/6/7/3, and 5/5/8/3 ring systems, respectively. Their structures with absolute configurations were determined by spectroscopic analyses, X-ray crystallography, and electronic circular dichroism calculations. Since Kv1.3 is a validated target for the treatment of autoimmune diseases, such as multiple sclerosis, type-1 diabetes, asthma, and psoriasis, Kv1.3 was studied in terms of its response to the new compounds. All three compounds inhibit Kv1.3, with compound 3 being the most effective with an IC50 value of 9.50 μM.
