Four new podocarpane‐type trinorditerpenenes, (5 β ,10 α )‐12,13‐dihydroxypodocarpa‐8,11,13‐trien‐3‐one ( 1 ), (5 β ,10 α )‐12‐hydroxy‐13‐methoxypodocarpa‐8,11,13‐trien‐3‐one ( 2 ), (5 β ,10 α )‐13‐hydroxy‐12‐methoxypodocarpa‐8,11,13‐trien‐3‐one ( 3 ), and (3 α ,5 β ,10 α )‐13‐methoxypodocarpa‐8,11,13‐triene‐3,12‐diol ( 4 ), together with four known diterpenes, 12‐hydroxy‐13‐methylpodocarpa‐8,11,13‐trien‐3‐one ( 5 ), spruceanol ( 6 ), ent ‐3 α ‐hydroxypimara‐8(14),15‐dien‐12‐one ( 7 ), and ent ‐3 β ,14 α ‐hydroxypimara‐7,9(11),15‐triene‐12‐one ( 8 ), were isolated from the twigs and leaves of Aleurites moluccana. Their structures were elucidated by means of comprehensive spectroscopic analyses, including NMR and MS. Except 8 , all compounds were evaluated for their cytotoxicity; compound 4 exhibited moderate inhibitory activity against Raji cells with an IC 50 value of 4.24 μg/ml.
