A new amide designated as armatamide (1)-along with two lignans, asarinin and fargesin, alpha- and beta-amyrins, lupeol, and beta-sitosterol-beta-D-glucoside-has been isolated from the bark of Zanthoxylum armatum. The structure of the new compound was deduced by spectral and chemical analysis as N-(4'-methoxyphenyl ethyl)-3, 4-methylenedioxy cinnamoyl amide.
