Abstract
Iridoid- and secoiridoid glucosides (Fig. 1) are groups of natural products which have been known for a long time but have recently attracted notice. For example, the iridoid glucosides1), asperuloside and aucubin, were isolated in 1848 and 1902, respectively, and the secoiridoid glucoside, gentiopicroside2), in 1862. However, for technical reasons studies on the chemistry of these glucosides did not begin until the latter half of nineteen fifties. Thus only very recently the steric configuration of these compounds has been completely elucidated.
