Abstract Chemical investigation of the root of Zanthoxylum paracanthum afforded 1 new alkamide derivative, (2E,4E)-6-oxo-N-isobutyldeca-2,4-dienamide (1) together with 10 known congeners including one phenolic amide (2), four benzophenanthridines (3???6), three indolonaphthyridines (7???9) and two lignans (10 and 11). Their structures were elucidated by a combination of spectroscopic and spectrometric data. Using resazurin reduction assay, the crude extract (10?μg/mL) and isolates (10?μM) were screened for their cytotoxic activities against the drug-sensitive (CCRF-CEM) leukemia cell line and its multidrug-resistant counterpart (CEM/ADR5000). Compounds 3, 4 and 6 showed cytotoxicity against CCRF-CEM with IC50 values of 2.00?±?0.33, 2.31?±?0.20 and 0.11?±?0.04?μM, respectively. Only compound 6 exhibited strong cytotoxic activity against CEM/ADR5000 with an IC50 value of 2.34?±?0.34?μM in comparison with the standard drug doxorubicin which showed IC50 values of 0.01?±?0.14 (CCRF-CEM) and 26.78?±?3.30?μM (CEM/ADR5000).
