New 3-methyoxyflavones, an iridoid lactone and a flavonol from duroia hirsuta

Investigation of the roots of Duroia hirsuta from Ecuador yielded the iridoid lactone duroin (1) together with 3,7,3', 5'-tetramethoxy-4'-hydroxyflavone (2), 3,7,3'-trimethoxy-4', 5'-dihydroxyflavone (3), and 7,3',5'-trimethoxy-3, 4'-dihydroxyflavone (4) as novel constituents.
