Abstract

From Inula caspica BLUME (Compositae) were isolated 3β-hydroxy-2α-senecioyloxyisoalantolactone (I), whose structure was confirmed by X-ray diffraction and completed by determination of its absolute configuration, and britannin (II) whose relative configuration was determined by X-ray diffraction and absolute configuration by CD spectroscopy.
