Abstract
Two new secoiridoid glycosides, 4‴-O-β-D-glucopyranosyltrifloroside 1 and 4‴-O-β-D-glucopyranosylscabraside 2, along with three known secoiridoids were isolated from the rhizomes of Gentiana scabra (Gentianaceae) in our recent phytochemical study. Their chemical structures were determined by spectroscopic data including 1D and 2D NMR spectra. The chemotaxonomic significance of the secoiridoid glycosides is briefly discussed.
