A new diprenyl coumarin and alkaloids from the bark of Zanthoxylum dimorphophyllum (Rutaceae).

The alkaloids chelerythrine, norchelerythrine, oxyavicine, canthine-6-one, 4,5-dihydrocanthin-6-one, and gamma-fagarine were isolated from Zanthoxylum dimorphophyllum bark, together with two coumarins, scoparone and dimoxylin. This latter is a novel compound whose structure was elucidated on the basis of its spectral data.
