From the whole plant extract of Daphne oleoides, a new dicoumarin glycoside gulsamanin, has been isolated. Its structure was established as 6,7-dihydroxy-3-methoxy-8-[2-oxo-2H-1-benzopyran-7-(O-β-D-glucopyranosyl)-8-yl]-2H-1-benzopyran-2-one, on the basis of extensive NMR spectral studies, as well as by chemical methods.
