The species Chelananthus alatus is an herbaceous plant with known ethno botanical and medicinal properties used in control of fever, especially those produced by malaria. From dried leaves (1.11 Kg), the crude alcoholic extract was fractionated by liquid-liquid partition with different polarity solvents. From the sec-butyl alcohol soluble fraction, by successive application of chromatographic methods, four compounds type iridoid were isolated and identified by spectroscopic techniques. Compound 1 is a new secoiridoid which was identified as sweroside 7-isobutyryloxy, and it is reported here for the first time in the Gentianaceae family; the other secoiridoids which were isolated are known as vogeloside (2), dihydro-chelonanthoside (3) and sweroside (4); vogeloside was identified for the first time in this plant (C. alatus). From the isopropyl acetate extract, in conjunction with the sweroside 7- isobutyryloxy (1), chelonanthoside (5) and sweroside (4), were identified, along with the sweroside 7-isovaleryloxy-(6) as a new side chain isomeric ester of dihydrochelonanthoside (3) . This work presents the spectroscopic analysis of the new structures and some bioactivity data.
