Abstract
Research on iridoids began with the discovery of asperuloside (1) (an iridoid glucoside) in 1848 and gentiopicroside (2) (a secoiridoid glucoside) in 1862. However, it was only in the late 1950’s that the structures of the compounds of this series began to be elucidated. Thus structure elucidation of the non-glycosidic iridoids iridomyrmecin (3) (1, 2, 2a) isoiridomyrmecin (4) (3, 3a, 4) and nepetalactone (5) (5) and that of the iridoid glucoside plumieride (6) (6) gradually led to the unravelling of the structures of other then unknown iridoids. Since then, large numbers of diverse new iridoids have been found and their structures have been elucidated as time progressed.
