title: Chemical constituents of Isodon melissoides.
abstract: Four new diterpenoids, melissoidesin E (1), F (2), G (4) and H (5), together with one known diterpenoid and two lignan glycosides, were isolated from aerial parts of Isodon melissoides. Their structures were established by spectral analysis and comparison with related compounds. The lignan glycosides (compounds 7 and 8) were the first examples to be isolated from the genus Isodon plants.
