A new iridoid glycoside, scrovaleneinoside (1), was isolated from the
MeOH extract of the aerial parts of Scrophularia auriculata L. ssp. ps
eudoauriculata. The structure of the new compound 1 was elucidated as
6-O-(2 '',3 ''-di-O-acetyl-4 ''-O-p-methoxy-cinnamoyl)-alpha-L-rhamnop
yranosyl catalpol by spectroscopic methods. The known iridoid glycosid
e, scropolioside A; two saponins, verbascosaponin A and verbascosaponi
n; and the phenylethanoid glycoside, verbascoside, were also isolated.
