[ 1 ] - Isolation and characterization of bis(2-ethylheptyl) phthalate from Cynodon dactylon (L.) and studies on the catalytic activity of its Cu(II) complex in the green preparation of 1,8-dioxo-octahydroxanthenes

Bis(2-ethylheptyl) phthalate is an anti-oxidant and anticancer compound that was extracted from the Cynodon dactylon plant stem extract and fully identified and characterized by FTIR, CHN, 1HNMR, 13CNMR, along with various 2D NMR techniques. The phthalate compound was modified and functionalized by polyethylene glycol (PEG) chains followed by complexation to Cu(II) ions. The resultant complex w...
