Abstract
A second hypotensive agent from Verbesina caracasana is shown to be th e truxinic type dimer of the previously isolated 3,4-dimethoxycinnamoy l guanidinoamide. The new compound gave by alkaline hydrolysis a cryst alline monoamide, which in turn by acid hydrolysis gave 3',4'-dimethox y-beta-truxinic acid, identical with a synthetic specimen.
