Three new glycosides were isolated from the fruits of noni (Morinda citrifolia). Their structures were determined to be 6-O-(beta-D-glucopyranosyl)-1-O-octanoyl-beta-D-glucopyranose (1), 6-O-(beta-D-glucopyranosyl)-1-O-hexanoyl-beta-D-glucopyranose (2), and 3-methylbut-3-enyl 6-O-beta-D-glucopyranosyl-beta-D-glucopyranoside (3) using MS and NMR methods.
