Isolation and Characterization of Leaf Extract of Derris Trifoliata
نویسنده
چکیده
Derris trifoliata belongs to the family Fabaceae of the order Papilionoideae. D. trifoliata is used in local medicine in India as a stimulant, antispasmodic and counter-irritant, and against rheumatism, chronic paralysis and dysmenorrhoea. The bioactive principle present in the leaves of Derris trifoliata was isolated and characterized in the present study. The powdered leaves were repeatedly extracted in methanol. The crude methanolic extract upon separation through silica gel column chromatography yielded 70 fractions which were then separated further by thin layer chromatography and isolated three different compounds. These fractions were further characterized by high performance thin layer chromatography and the Rf values are identified accurately for individual peaks. This yields the complete phytochemical characterization of the methanol extracts of Derris trifoliata.The study attempts to identify the new compounds in this plant that revealed three compounds. The purity of the compounds was determined for the effective utilization of the compounds in the production of novel pharmaceutical preparations.

The crude methanol extract of the seeds of Derris trifoliata showed potent and dose dependent larvicidal activity against the 2nd instar larvae of Aedes aegypti. From this extract two unusual rotenoid derivatives, a rotenoloid (named 7a-O-methyl-12a-hydroxydeguelol) and a spirohomooxarotenoid (named spiro-13-homo-13-oxaelliptone), were isolated and characterised. In addition a rare natural chro...

From the dichloromethane-methanol (1:1) extract of the seed pods of Derris trifoliata, a new flavanone derivative (S)-lupinifolin 4 -́methyl ether was isolated. In addition, the known flavonoids lupinifolin and rotenone were identified. The structures were determined on the basis of spectroscopic evidence. Lupinfolin showed moderate in vitro antiplasmodial activity against the D6 (chloroquine-se...
متن کاملAnti-Angiogenic Activity of Rotenoids from the Stems of Derris trifoliata.
The plants in the genus Derris have proven to be a rich source of rotenoids, of which cytotoxic effect against cancer cells seem to be pronounced. However, their effect on angiogenesis playing a crucial role in both cancer growth and metastasis has been seldom investigated. This study aimed at investigating the effect of the eight rotenoids (1: -8: ) isolated from Derris trifoliata stems on thr...
