Abstrakt: Several phthalides were semisynthesized, including a 3,8-dihydrodiligustilide with progesterone-like activity, previously isolated from Ligusticum chuanxiong , the structure of which was earlier assigned to a semisynthetic product with nonidentical spectroscopic constants. The structure of this natural phthalide was reassigned with a proposal of its absolute configuration. Phthalides acted as progestins in cell viability assays, immunofluorescence microscopy, and docking analysis. Therefore, the structures for natural and semisynthetic phthalides with potential use in hormone-related therapies were reassigned.
