Calocetriol ( 1 ), diacetylcalocediol ( 2 ), and ferrugimenthenol ( 3 ) were isolated from the bark of Calocedrus macrolepis var. formosana. Among them, 1 and 2 are secoabietane‐type diterpenoids, and 3 , with a novel C 20 C 10 skeleton, is classified as a meroterpenoid. The structures of 1 – 3 were elucidated by spectroscopic analyses, and their biological activities were also evaluated. Compound 3 exhibited significant cytotoxic activity against human oral epidermoid carcinoma KB cells with an IC 50 value of 9.0±0.1 μ M .
