Southeast Asia, and about 15 species are distributed in Japan [2], There is a long history of the folk medicinal use of Viburnum species. For example, the dried bark of V. opulus L., which is known as Cramp Bark, is used to alleviate painful menstrual cramps as well as a sedative [3], Native American women took black haw (V. prunifolium L.) to treat the menopause and menstrual cramps [4], The genus Viburnum has been documented to contain a variety of compounds such as iridoids, terpenoids, and aromatic compounds [5,6]. Among the chemical contents of Viburnum species, vibsane-type diterpenoids are considered to be characteristic of the Viburnum species because they have not been fotmd in other higher plants. In this review [7], we focus on the structural diversity, biological activities, and synthesis of vibsane-type diterpenoids, in particular, synthetic studies and neurotrophic activity of neo-vibsanin A and B are emphasized.
