Two new heliangolides, incomptines C (3) and D (4), were isolated from the leaves of Decachaeta incompta. The structures were established by spectroscopic methods and confirmed by X-ray crystallography. The antiprotozoal activity of incomptines C and D was evaluated. Additionally, the chromatographic profile of the leaves and roots extracts were compared to identify incomptines A-D (1-4) in each extract. Georg Thieme Verlag KG Stuttgart · New York.
