Labdane Diterpenes and Flavonoids from Leonurus japonicus

Abstract Chemical investigation of the aerial part of Leonurus japonicus led to the isolation and characterization of a new labdane‐type diterpene, named 3 α ‐acetoxy‐15‐ O ‐methylleopersin C ( 3 ), and a new acylated rutin derivative, named 2′′′‐syringylrutin ( 9 ), along with seven known compounds, including a labdane‐type diterpene and six flavonoids. The structures of the new compounds were established by spectroscopic methods.
