Abstract:
A reinvestigation of the aerial parts of E. conyzoides L. afforded three new 5-methyl coumarins and a degraded nor compound with an eucarvone part. The structures were elucidated using spectral methods and some chemical transformations. The biogenetic relationships of these compounds are discussed.
