Summary
Four new diterpene lactones have been isolated from the plantTeucrium hyrcanicum L. (Hercanium germander) and have been named teucrins H1-4. On the basis of spectral characteristics, a probable structure has been proposed for teucrin H1, which has been assigned to the rearranged norlabdane derivatives.
