“…The coumarin skeleton is synthesized from acetyl-CoA and malonyl-CoA through the polyketide pathway in plants [42]. Inspired by the biosynthetic pathway of tetrahydrocannabinolic acid (THCA) in Cannabis sativa [43], the monoterpenoid-coumarins identified in this study are plausibly first added a monoterpenoid chain to C-3 of the coumarin skeleton, catalyzed by prenyl Chiral resolution of 23 gave two enantiomers (23a and 23b) in a 1:1 ratio ( Figure S2, Supplementary Material), and comparison of the ECD spectra of 23a and 23b with the ECD spectrum calculated for 23b (Figure 9), allowed assignment of the absolute configuration to be 9R,10R,11R,14S for 23a and 9S,10S,11S,14R for 23b, respectively, with ∆ ESI of 0.88.…”
