Globularin is trans - cinnamic acid - esters of Catalpols . It is a vegetable iridoid - glycoside , which can be found in plants of the plantain family (especially globular flowers , globularia , which gave the substance its name) and in mint plants ( Gmelina and Scutellaria ). The sugar part of the glycoside in globularin consists of glucose , the aglycon is called globularetin. The corresponding cis compound (with cis -3-phenylpropenoic acid), globulariscin , is also found in the plants .

The white, amorphous substance is readily soluble in water, ethanol and ether. Symptoms of poisoning with parts of plants are vomiting, colic, diarrhea , dizziness, headache and even circulatory collapse.
