Abstract
4'-hydroxyphenyl)-3-methyl-5(E)-propenylbenzofuran (conocarpan) (1), 3 '-methoxyphenyl)-3-methyl-5(E)-propenylbenzofuran (eupomatenoid-5) (2) , and 4'-hydroxyphenyl)-3-methyl-5(E)-propenylbenzofuran (eupomatenoid -6) (3), three known neolignans found for the first time in a species of the Piperaceae, were isolated from Piper decurrens via insecticidal bioassay-guided fractionation, along with a small quantity of a new r elated compound, o-5-formyl-2-(4'-hydroxyphenyl)-3-methylbenzofuran (d ecurrenal) (4), and 3,7,11,15-tetramethyl-2(E)-hexadecen-1-ol (trans-p hytol).
