Euphorbia plant, Euphorbia thymifolia Linn, is one the Euphorbiaceae families that still need to be developed due to its benefits. An effort to be able to use this plant maximumly is by studying the active component in the plant. This study aims to isolate and characterize phenolic compound in euphorbia plant extract using ethyl acetate. 500 gram of euphorbia plant (Patikan Cina) powder was macerated using methanol. Then, the macerated extract was evaporated to eliminate excess solvent and as a result, a solvent-free extract was obtained. Next, the result was partitioned with a solution of methanol : ethyl acetate (1:1) in order to get methanol and ethyl acetate extracts. The ethyl acetate extract of the partition was evaporated to get concentrated ethyl acetate extract. Next, it was isolated in a vacuum liquid and gravitational column chromatography to get pure isolate. Silica gel 60 (0.040 – 0.063 mm) and n-hexane motion phase were used in the separation of concentrated ethyl acetate in vacuum liquid chromatography. There were 16 fractions produced from the yield. Then the fractions were put in TLC. With silica gel 60 (0.2 – 0.5 mm) mesh and n-hexane mobile phase, ethyl acetate gave 5 fractions in gravitational column chromatography and fraction 3 produced a single spot. UV and IR spectroscopy were used to determine the constituents in the isolate. From UV spectrum, max is 268.97 nm. While IR data shows the presence O-H group in 3521.38 cm-1, C – H (alkane) presents at wave number 2926.45 cm-1 reinforced by the appearance of 5 other alkanes absorption at 2857.00 cm-1, 1447.31 cm-1, 1370.18 cm-1, 868.774 cm-1 and 757.887 cm-1 wavelengths. There is also C = O (carbonyl) groups in wave number 1693.19 cm-1. The identification of structures based on UV and IR spectra data has shown that the isolate is a phenolic compound.

Bergenin is an important constituent of Flueggea virosa (Euphorbiaceae), a tropical plant with several traditional uses. While there are numerous reports on the isolation and characterization of bergenin, a rapid, high-throughput, readily accessible method for the isolation and characterization of the compound locally has not been reported. Isocratic elution of ethyl acetate extract via vacuum liquid chromatography (VLC) with methanol produced a white amorphous solid (100 mg), which was successfully isolated from 250 g of the plant. On the basis of spectral data (1H, C NMR, COSY, HSQC and HMBC) and comparison with literature reports, the structure of this solid was shown to be bergenin, a dihydroisocoumarin derivative of glucopyranosyl gallic acid.

The antidiarrhoeal effect of Waltheria indica methanol extract and fractions have been reported earlier but, the present work examined the intestinal relaxant effects of two flavonoid-phenyl propanoids isolated from the methanol extract. The active aqueous fraction was subjected to vacuum liquid chromatography using dichloromethane with increasing concentration of ethyl acetate, and that of methanol and water successively. The ten (10) fractions obtained were combined to give seven (7). The fraction 2 (C, D) was subjected to preparative thin layer chromatography on silica gel GF254 (10-40μm) using CHCl3-CH3OH (8:2) to obtain compound coded F2. Fraction 4 (F) was subjected to column chromatography using silica gel (60-120μm mesh) and eluted with  dichloromethane with increasing concentrations of methanol. Fractions 9-28 were combined and subjected to column  chromatography using chloroform with increasing concentration of methanol. The fractions 1-16 of these were purified on Sephadex LH-20 to obtain compound BAA. The identities of the two compounds were established using spectroscopic methods. The  antidiarrheal effect of compound F2 was evaluated on mice using charcoal transit (100,200, 400mg/kg), castor oil (40, 60 mg/kg)  while the two compounds were examined for their inhibitory effects on Ach-induced ileum contraction. The effects of the  compounds were compared with loperamide (3mg/kg) and atropine (80μg). Compounds F2 and BAA were identified as tiliroside and 3’’’, 5’’’-dimethoxy tiliroside respectively. Tiliroside inhibited the charcoal transition in the animals in a dose dependent pattern with 400mg/ mL eliciting 63.41% inhibition compared to 59.23% produced by loperamide. The compound also elicited significantly (P<0.05) prolonged onset of stooling and reduced the number and weight of stools produced lower than the control. The two  compounds drastically inhibited the Ach-induced contractions of the ileum. The compound, tiliroside at 10mg, completely abolished  the contraction by Ach unlike 3’’’, 5’’’-dimethoxy tiliroside which reduced the contraction to 1.92% at 20mg. The identified compounds seem to be responsible for the ethnomedicinal use of the plant in treating diarrhea.

The isolation was employed by maceration using ethanol as solvent and liquids extraction using ethyl acetate. Ethyl acetate extract was partitioned successively using nonpolar solvent with hexane, dichloromethane, and diethyl ether, respectively. The diethyl ether extract was purified by column chromatography. The isolated compound of fraction D1 was obtained as white solids crystal with yield of 0.0035%. The isolated compound was determined based on the FTIR, 1HNMR, 13CNMR, HSQC, and HMBC spectra. The isolated compound was identified as 28-hydroxy-3-friedelanone.

Objective: This study aimed to isolate and characterize the compounds responsible for the high antioxidant activities of the ethyl acetate and methanolextracts of Garcinia daedalanthera Pierre leaves.Methods: In this study, the ethyl acetate extract was obtained by column chromatography, and the methanol extract was obtained by vacuum columnchromatography. The mobile phase comprised n-hexane, ethyl acetate, and methanol with increased polarity. Antioxidant activity was examined usingthe 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) method. The fraction with the highest antioxidant activity was purified through column chromatography,recrystallization, and preparative thin-layer chromatography. This fraction, termed the isolate of B, was identified using DPPH and AlCl3, and itsantioxidant activity was quantitatively tested.Results: From this research, 21.7 mg of the isolate of B were obtained with an IC50 of 5.82 μg/mL. Identification using an AlCl3 sprayer producedyellow phosphorescent spots under UV light. UV-Vis spectrum analysis revealed the presence of an aromatic compound and conjugated double bonds.Infrared spectrum analysis revealed the presence of −OH, C–H alkane, C=C aromatic, C=O, and C-O-C groups.Conclusion: Based on this research, 21.7 mg of the isolate of B was derived through fractionation of the methanol extract, and this isolate exhibitedantioxidant activity with an IC50 of 5.82 μg/mL. The isolate of B was considered to be a flavonoid, as it was fluorescent under UV light (366 nm) afterbeing sprayed with AlCl3 reagent.

Lupeol, a pentacyclic triterpenoid, was isolated from hexane and ethyl acetate solvent system. In antiquity, the stem and leaf infusion of Tapinanthus globiferus has been used ethno-medicinally as a remedy for stomach ache, diarrhea, dysentery, and wounds. Lupeol isolation from this species was carried out by column chromatography after concentrating the crude extract using a rotary evaporator, and the structure was determined by analysis of the isolate by IR, 13CNMR, 1HNMR, HSQC, and HMBC spectral analysis as well as comparison with reported data. This is the first isolation of lupeol from the stem of this species. Keywords: Tapinanthus globiferus, Column chromatography, dysentery, Lupeol
