Eleven new monoterpenoids including three 1-methyl cantharimide-type derivatives (1-3), five 1,2-dimethyl cantharimide-type derivatives (4, 5, 7-9), and three 1-hydroxymethyl-2-methyl cantharimide-type derivatives (10-12), together with seven known cantharimides (6, 13-18), were isolated from Mylabis phalerata Palla. The planar structures and absolute configurations of compounds 1-14 were fully elucidated on the basis of spectroscopic analysis, ECD spectra, single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis, and chemical methods. Compounds 6, 15, 16, and 18 were found to be potent inhibitors of HBV virus, with IC50 values of 62, 42, 58, and 19 μM.
