OBJECTIVE Naturally occurring substances as novel drugs in cancer therapy, at all times, represent a challenge to science since medicinal plants are proving to be brilliant sources of new chemopreventive agents. METHODS In the present study, methanol extract from aerial parts of Marrubium crassidens

From the aerial parts of Marrubium cylleneum, one labdane nor-diterpene has been isolated together with two labdane diterpenes, hitherto not known as natural products. The structures of the isolated compounds were established by means of NMR [(1)H-(1)H-COSY, (1)H-(13)C-HSQC, HMQC-TOCSY, HMBC, NOESY]

The methanol extract of the aerial parts of Marrubium thessalum Boiss. & Heldr. (Lamiaceae) afforded 30 phenolic metabolites, belonging to the classes of phenylethanoid glycosides, flavonoids and simple phenolic compounds. The crude methanol extract as well as the secondary metabolites were screened
