Three new terpenoids, 2α,16-dihydroxy-4β-carboxy-O-β-d-glucopyranosyl-19-nor-totarol (1), nagilactone K (2), and 15-hydroxy phaseic acid (3), together with nine known compounds, were isolated from the leaves of Podocarpus gracilior. Their structures were determined by means of 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopy as well as by mass spectrometry analysis.
