Abstract

Abstract A novel type of wax ester has been isolated from a petrol extract of stems and leaves of Piper clarkii and its structure established as 3-(4-hydroxyphenyl) propyl tetracosanoate. The structure was verified by synthesis. The oxygenated cyclohexane (+)- crotepoxide and β-sitosterol were also isolated.
