Three new pyridine alkaloids and one new iridoid analogue from the leaves of Rehmannia glutinosa

As part of an ongoing project on Rehmannia species, three new pyridine alkaloides (glutinosines A - C), and one new iridoid analogue (rehmaglutin E), were isolated from the leaves of Rehmannia glutinosa. The structures of the new compounds were established by extensive spectroscopic analysis and electronic circular dichroism calculations.
