From the flower heads of Actnellu ciliata amides closely related to spilanthol were isolated. They possess isobutylamine, 2-phenylethylamine and 2-methylbutylamine parts. In the acidic part deca-2E,62,8&trienoic acid, known from spilanthol, and its 2,3-dihydro derivative were found. Two compounds bear ester groups, a novelty for unsaturated amides. The structures were elucidated by means of high field 'HNMR and high resolution mass spectrometry.
