Eleven undescribed diterpenoids possessing labdane, 3,18-cyclo-labdane, 19 (4 → 3)-labdane and 12-nor-labdane skeletons, named leucolactones A-K, were isolated from the heartwood of a large woody Lamiaceae plant, Leucosceptrum canum. Their structures were determined by NMR, MS, and in the case of leucolactones A by single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. Plausible biosynthetic pathway of leucolactones were proposed. Leucolactones showed significant inhibitory effects against seed germination and root elongation of Arabidopsis thaliana in the Petri dish bioassay. Among them, the diastereomeric leucolactones G and H were the most potent, with EC50 values for root elongation of 6.53 ± 1.35 and 9.75 ± 1.25 μM, respectively. The preliminary structure-activity relationship of leucolactones was discussed. The increase of auxin reporter activity in A. thaliana DR5::GUS roots by leucolactone H was observed, indicating that leucolactones altered auxin accumulation and distribution. These findings suggested that leucolactones might be involved in regulation of plant growth and development through altering auxin accumulation and distribution, presumably contributing to the heartwood formation in L. canum.
