One new diterpene ester with a tricyclic lathyrane-or myrsinol-type skeleton has been isolated from Euphorbia decipiens Boiss.&Buhse. In addition to one new, the known constituents β-amyrin, β-amyrin acetate, methyl (2,4-dihydroxy-3-formyl-6-methoxy) phenyl ketone (2), and 1,1-bis (2,6-dihydroxy-3-acetyl-4-methoxyphenyl) methane (3) have been isolated from the same source. The structure elucidation of the isolated compounds was based primarily on 1D and 2D-NMR analysis, including COSY, HMQC, HMBC and NOESY correlations. Compound 1 showed inhibitory activity against prolyl endopeptidase, and also analgesic activity
