%X Five new derivatives of 6&#945;,7&#946;-dihydroxyvouacapan-17&#946;-oic acid were prepared. The effect of these new furan diterpenes on the radicle growth of Sorghum bicolor L. and Cucumis sativus L. was evaluated. All compounds, at a concentration of 100 ppm, showed an inhibitory effect (40&#8211;63%) on the radicle growth of S. bicolor L. and a small stimulatory growth effect (3&#8211;15%) on the radicle of C. sativus L. None of the compounds had any effect on the germination rate of both plants.
