Abstract

Ten compounds were isolated from the methanolic extract of the whole plants of Diodia teres through repeated silica gel and Sephadex LH-20 column chromatography. Their chemical structures were elucidated as three iridoid glycosides, a coumarin glycoside, and six flavonoids by spectroscopic analysis. These compounds were isolated for the first time from D. teres.
