Shortolide A is a natural product isolated from Solidago shortii. S. shortii is an endangered species native to the United States. Shortolide A is one of six diterpenes isolated from the species Solidago shortii. Three of these products are hydrolysis products. Solidago is common across North America but Solidago shortii is only found in a limited area where only 14 wild populations are known. Because of this, the species was designated as endangered.
