Constituents of Nepeta crassifolia (Lamiaceae)
A long chain ketone ( crassifone), a pentacyclic triterpenoid coupled with fatty acid moiety ( crassifoate), and an acyclic diterpenoid ( crassifol) have been isolated from the ethanol soluble part of Nepeta crassifolia ( Lamiaceae) collected from Kangavar, Iran. Structures of all the metabolites were elucidated with the aid of spectroscopic techniques, including 2D NMR experiments.
