Abstract

Two hypotensive agents have been isolated from Verbesina caracasana Fries and attributed the structure of 1-[(3,4-dimethoxycinnamoyl)amino]-4-[(3-methyl-2-butenyl)guanido]butane and beta-truxinic[bis-3',4'-dimethoxy]di[N-(3-methylbut-3-enyl)guanidobutyl]amide, respectively. The structures of the two compounds have been confirmed by syntheses and their pharmacological profiles established. Studies on cell cultures of Verbesina caracasana gave unexpected results showing that a beta-glucosyltransferase is active in whole cells.
