The investigation of roots of Anthemis cotula (Asteraceae) from east Ser- bia revealed, in addition to polyacetylenes previously isolated from the same spe- cies, three prenylated 4-hydroxyacetophenones, detected for the first time in any Anthemis species. It is possible that they act as phytoalexins in the plant. From the aerial parts, six linear sesquiterpene lactones (four known and two new ones), as well as two known flavones, apigenin and hispidulin, were isolated.
