New iridoids from Asperula maximowiczii

Abstract

Three new dimeric iridoid glucosides, named asperuloides A (1), B (2), and C (3), were isolated from Asperula maximowiczii, along with the known compound picconioside II. The structures of the new compounds were determined by spectroscopic and chemical methods and by the single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis of 1.
