Abstract
Ten undescribed diterpenoids namely rubellawus E-N of structural types pimarane (1, 3-4), nor-abietane (2), nor-pimarane (5-6), isopimarane (7-9), and nor-isopimarane (10), along with eleven known compounds, were isolated and identified from the aerial parts of Callicarpa rubella Lindl. The structures of the isolated compounds were confirmed by comprehensive spectroscopic analyses and quantum chemical computations. Pharmacologically, almost all the compounds exhibited a potential inhibitory effect on oxidized low-density lipoprotein-induced macrophage foam cell formation, which suggests that these compounds may be promising candidates in the treatment of atherosclerosis.

Abstract
Callicarpa rubella is a characteristic folk herb in the genus Callicarpa, and has abundant ethnobotanical usage as indigenous medicine in Lingnan area of P. R. China. However, the phytochemical and pharmacological properties of C. rubella was rarely investigated. Now, three new diterpenoids, named rubellapene A-C (1-3), along with five known analogues (4-8), were isolated from C. rubella. Their structures were determined by spectroscopic methods, quantum chemical electronic circular dichroism calculations and single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. Notably, the norditerpenoids C18 of clerodane type (rubellapene B) was rarely found in the genus Callicarpa. The liver protective effects of all of the isolates (1-8) were evaluated by the changes of cell viability and transaminase content of AST and ALT in H2O2-induced BRL cells. Compound 1, 3-8 exhibited that potent liver protective effects at different levels.

Abstract
The relationship between Callicarpa rubella Lindl. and its infraspecific taxa has troubled researchers for a long time. Here, we reported for the first time the complete chloroplast (cp) genome of C. rubella to investigate its phylogenetic position and provide more sequencing information for further studies about the relationship between C. rubella and its related species. The cp genome of C. rubella was 154,202 bp in length and displayed a typical quadripartite angiosperm structure, containing two inverted repeat (IR) regions of 25,701 bp, a large single-copy (LSC) region of 84,968 bp and a small single-copy (SSC) region of 17,832 bp. It contained 87 protein-coding genes, 37 tRNA genes and 8 rRNA genes. The analysis fully resolved C. rubella was in a clade with C. bodinieri and C. nudiflora. The results indicated Callicarpa formed a sister relationship with Dicrastylis parvifolia in Lamiaceae.

Abstract
There are around 140 species in the genus Callicarpa, with 23 species occurring in Vietnam. The Vietnamese Callicarpa species have been poorly studied. In this work, the leaf essential oils of C. bodinieri, C. candicans, C. formosana, C. longifolia, C. nudiflora, C. petelotii, C. rubella, and C. sinuata, have been obtained from plants growing in central Vietnam. The chemical compositions of the essential oils were determined using gas chromatography – mass spectrometry. Mosquito larvicidal activities of the essential oils were carried out against Aedes aegypti. All of the Callicarpa leaf essential oils showed larvicidal activity, but two samples of C. candicans were particularly active with 48-h LC50 values of 2.1 and 3.8 μg/mL. Callicarpacandicans essential oil should be considered as a potential alternative mosquito control agent.
