Twelve compounds have been isolated for the first time from Amberboa ramosa namely, octacosanoic acid (1), cinnamicacid (2), 7,8-dihydroxycoumarin (3), 5-hydroxy-7,8-dimethoxyflavone(4), 5-hydroxy-3,6,7,4 -tetramethoxyflavone (5), 5,7,3',4'- tetrahydroxyflavone (6), Β-amyrin (7), Β-amyrin acetate (8), marrusidin A (9) marrusidin B(10), polyodonine (11), stigmasterol 3-O-Β-D-glucopyranoside (12)respectively. Their structures have been elucidated by EI-MS, HR-EI-MS, HR-FAB-MS, 1H-NMR and 13C-NMR spectroscopic data. Compounds 2-6 showed moderate antioxidant activity.
