Terpenes from Juniperus przewalskii and their antitumor activities.

Abstract	Two new diterpenes were isolated from Juniperus przewalskii, together with 17 known terpense. Their structures were elucidated by spectroscopic methods (IR, MS, 1H, 13C and 2DNMR). In addition, 3 alpha-hinokiol (3) and 3 alpha-hydroxymannol (9) exhibited effective antitumor activities to cervical carcinoma (HeLa) and human ovarian carcinoma (HO-8910) cell lines.
