Abstract

Natural (2E, 4E)-dienamides of Piperaceae and Echinacea species have a broad spectrum of therapeutic action, and in the past decade they attracted a wide attention [1–7]. Sarmentine, the 1-[(2E, 4E)-deca-2, 4-dienoyl] pyrrolidine, was first isolated from the Piper sarmentosum fruits [8]. It possesses sedative, analgesic, and antibacterial activities [9]. Recently it was found to manifest antitubercular and antiplazmodial activities [10].
