<jats:p>From the aerial parts of Eriostemon tomentellus five coumarins have been isolated. These have been characterized as ostruthin (6-geranyl-7-hydroxycoumarin (1)) and the novel compounds, 8-geranyl-7-hydroxycoumarin (2), (E)-6-(7-hydroxy-3,7-dimethylocta-2,5-dienyl)- 7-hydroxycoumarin (3), (E)-6-(7-hydroperoxy-3,7-dimethylocta-2,5-dienyl)-7-hydroxycoumarin (4), and 6-(6-hydroxy-3,7-dimethylocta-2,7-dienyl)-7-hydroxycoumarin (5). In addition tembamide (2-{4-methoxyphenyl}-2-hydroxy-N-benzoylethylamine (6 ) was isolated and the <jats:sup>l3</jats:sup>C NMR spectrum reported for the first time.
