From the aerial parts of Senecio dianthus, five eremophilane glucosides (1, 2, 4-6) and one new eremophilenolide (7) were isolated, together with sixteen known compounds (3, 8-22). Their structures and relative configurations were elucidated on the basis of extensive spectroscopic analysis,
A new eremophilane derivative, 4,5,11-trimethyl-9( 10), 7 ( 11) -eremophiladien-8-keto-12-carboxylic acid-beta-D-glucopyranoside( which named dianthuside A) 1 and four known compounds, 5,7,4'-trihydroxy-flavonone-3-0-beta-D-glucoside (2), quercetin-3-0-beta-D-glucoside(3) ,hyperin(4) and rutin(5)
