The sesquiterpenoid lactone obtained from the rhizome of Inula helenium was reduced with sodium amalgam and dihydroisoalantolactone was isolated as the product. Allyl oxidation of the latter with selenenium dioxide yielded 3-hydroxydihydroisoalantolactone, which was derived to 3-oxotetrahydroalantolactone and compared with tetrahydrosantonin.
