M. Ibrahim,  *ab Hagar M. Mohamed, cd Samar S. A. Murshid,  e Asma Ahmad Nashawif and Gamal A. Mohamed  e  \nCassane diterpenoids are naturally occurring compounds, characterized mainly by molecular skeletons of three fused cyclohexane rings. They are predominantly isolated from the genus Caesalpinia (Fabaceae) . Cassane diterpenoids possess various pharmacological activities, including anti-inﬂammatory, antibacterial, cytotoxic, antiparasitic, antidiabetic, and neuroprotective eﬀects. This work provides an update on the newly reported cassane diterpenoids from 2019 to 2025 . In this work, cassane diterpenoids are categorized according to their carbon skeletons into usual tricyclic cassanes, tricyclic cassane with butanolide, cassane furanoditerpenoids, norcassanes, cassane ester amines, cassane amides, and penta-spiro cassanes. Their reported biological activities, together with biosynthetic pathways, isolation and puriﬁcation, and structure–activity relationships, are discussed. A total of 238 compounds were discussed, and 55 references were listed. The reported ﬁndings expand the knowledge of chemical features and biological potential of cassane diterpenoids and support their further investigation as promising leads for drug discovery.  \n1. Introduction  \nThe shared challenges that people face worldwide include attaining zero hunger, ending poverty, improving nutritional status, enhancing people's health, promoting sustainable agriculture, delivering aﬀordable health care services, and limiting climate change. The UN General Assembly passed a resolution titled “Transforming our world: the 2030 agenda for sustainable development,” that included 17 SDGs (Sustainable Development Goals) . Providing a sustainable global health care system by 2030 is among these SDGs, and global eﬀorts have been directed towards 􀀁nding new and innovative solutions for achieving this goal. Medicinal plants are among the most important sources of medicine, and millions of people rely on herbal medicine for their treatments and cures.
