Main Results:

A new iridoid glucoside, named urphoside A, was isolated.
Six known iridoid glucosides (pikuroside, aucubin, veronicoside, catalposide, amphicoside, and verminoside) were identified.
A known megastigmane glucoside and dulcitol were also isolated and characterized.

Conclusions:

The phytochemical investigation of Veronica hederifolia led to the discovery of a new iridoid glucoside.
The study expands the knowledge of iridoid and megastigmane glucoside diversity in this plant species.
The structural elucidation confirmed the identity of known compounds and characterized the novel compound urphoside A.
