[Structure of lamiophlomiol C].

ABSTRACT

A new highly oxygenated iridoid, lamiophlomiol C isolated from the alcohol soluble fraction of the roots of Lamiophlomis rotata (Labiatae), was shown to have the molecular formula C11H14O7. On the basis of UV, IR, MS and NMR spectroscopic data, particularly X-ray crystallographlic analysis, structure I has been assigned to this iridoid.
