The first contribution reviews the phytochemical, chemical, and
biological literature on members of the ingenane class of
diterpenoids from their first isolation in 1968 through 2015,
highlighting unresolved issues both common to phorboids and
specific to ingenol derivatives. The biogenesis of ingenol
is discussed in the light of the Jakupovic proposal of a
dissection between the formation of the macrocyclic

as well as its chemical diversity and ecological relations; the
secondary metabolites as well as their sources of isolation;
and finally the biological activity.
