ABSTRACT
Two new phenylpropanoids, named O-geranylsinapyl alcohol (1) and O-geranylconiferyl alcohol (2), and a new acid amide, named hazeleamide (3), were isolated from the bark of Fagara rhetza (Rutaceae), an Indonesian medicinal plant from Flores Island, Indonesia. The chemical structures of 1, 2, and 3 have been elucidated on the basis of their chemical and physicochemical properties. Among the three new compounds, hazeleamide (3) was found to show a pungent taste and to exert a moderate antimalarial activity in an in vitro test system.
