Five new labdane-type diterpenes were isolated from the resinous wood of Excoecaria agallocha. The structures of these compounds were established as ent-13-epi-8, 13-epoxy-2-hydroxylabda-1, 14-dien-3-one (1), ent-13-epi-8, 13-epoxy-14S, 15-dohydroxylabdan-3-one (2), ent-13-epi-8, 13-epoxy-2, 3-secolabd-14-ene-2, 3-dioic acid (3), ent-13-epi-8, 13-epoxy-2, 3-secolabd-14-ene-2, 3-dioic acid 3-methyl ester (4) and ent-13-epi-8, 13-epoxy-2-oxa-3-oxolabd-14-ene-1R-carboxylic acid (5).
