Four coumarin derivatives were isolated from the methanol extract of stem bark of Murraya koenigii (Linn.) Spreng. Extensive spectroscopic studies, including high field NMR analyses allowed to identify these compounds as meranzin hydrate (1), epoxyosthol (2), isomeranzin (3) and murracarpin (4). The identity of the compounds was confirmed by comparison with published data as well as co-TLC with authentic samples. This is the first report of occurrence of meranzin hydrate (1), epoxyosthol (2) and isomeranzin (3) from M. koenigii.Dhaka Univ. J. Pharm. Sci. 15(2): 155-159, 2016 (December)

Two terpenoids, β-amyrin (1) and β-sitostenone (2) and a coumarin, scopoletin (3) were isolated from petroleum ether and dichloromethane soluble extracts of the stem bark of Bursera serrata Wall. The structures of the isolated compounds 1-3 were established by extensive spectroscopic studies as well as by comparison with published data. Although compounds 1-3 have been isolated from various plant species previously, this is the first report of the occurrence of these compounds from B. serrata. The crude extractives exhibited weak antimicrobial activity and cytotoxicity. Key words: Bursera serrata; Burseraceae; β-amyrin; β-sitostenone; scopoletin; antimicrobial; cytotoxicity   DOI: 10.3329/dujps.v8i2.6023 Dhaka Univ. J. Pharm. Sci. 8(2): 107-110, 2009 (December)

Four compounds were isolated from the methanol extract of leaves of Glycosmis pentaphylla. The structures of the isolated compounds were solved as epi-oleanolic acid (1), ?-amyrin (2), spinasterol (3) and arborinine (4) by extensive spectroscopic studies, including high field NMR analyses as well as co-TLC with authentic samples. This appeares to be the first report of their occurrence from Glycosmis species. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/dujps.v13i2.21887 Dhaka Univ. J. Pharm. Sci. 13(2): 115-118, 2014 (December)

A phenolic acid had been isolated from chloroform soluble fractions of a methanol extract of stem bark of Syzygium litorale, Fam. Myrtaceae. The structure of the isolated compound was elucidated and established as gallic acid through extensive spectroscopic studies (UV-Vis, FTIR, and NMR) and by comparison with literature data and authentic sample. This is the first report of the isolation of compound from this plant, although it has previously been found in Myrtaceae family such as S. aromaticum, S. cumini, S. polyanthum, S. cordatum, etc. The chloroform fraction, isolated compound, and vitamin C showed very strong antioxidant activity against 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) with IC50 value of 23.2, 7.5, and 12.5 mg/mL, respectively.

The methanol extract of the powdered leaf of Eurya acuminata was investigated for isolation of secondary metabolites and two compounds were obtained by using VLC, column chromatography and TLC. The compounds were identified as phytol (1) and ?-sitosterol by extensive spectroscopic studies, including high field NMR analyses as well as co-TLC with authentic samples. The methanol extract of leaf of E. acuminata and its organic and aqueous soluble partitioning materials were evaluated for cytotoxic, thrombolytic and antimicrobial properties. In the cytotoxicity study the aqueous fraction of crude methanolic extract showed significant lethality towards brine shrimp having LC50 value 8.821 ?g/ml as compared to standard vincristine sulfate (0.404 ?g/ml). In the study for thrombolytic property, different extract of E. acuminata exhibited various thrombolytic activity ranging from 13.66 to 31.89 % as compared to standard streptokinase (46.51 %). No antimicrobial activity was observed from leaf extracts.Dhaka Univ. J. Pharm. Sci. 15(2): 151-154, 2016 (December)

Two oleanane-type glycosides eclalbasaponin II (1) and eclalbasaponin I (2) along with the ubiquitous steroid, stigmasterol were isolated from an n-hexane extract of the stem bark of Eclipta prostrata. The structures of the isolated compounds were confirmed by extensive spectroscopic studies, notably high field NMR and MS. The 13C NMR data of the parent saponins 1 and 2 are reported here for the first time. Key words: Eclipta prostrata, Compositae, Oleanane glycoside, Eclalbasaponin I, Eclalbasaponin II. Dhaka Univ. J.

Phytochemical investigations of fresh leaves and stem bark of Plumeria obtusa Linn. have led to the isolation and characterization of a new iridoid, p-methoxy- E-cinnamoyloxy plumieride (1), to which the trivial name champalinin has been assigned, and a triterpene lactone, 3β-hydroxy-urs-12-one-13β,28-olide (2). This is the first report of compound 2 as a natural product, although it has been reported earlier as a synthetic compound. Identification of these compounds was achieved through spectroscopic studies and chemical transformations.

The methanol extract of whole plants of Hygrophila schulli Buch.-Ham. was subjected to repeated chromatographic separation and purification processes to isolate its chemical constituents. A total of three compounds were isolated which have been characterized as stigmasterol, lupeol and lup-20(29)-ene-3β,23- diol on the basis of 1H NMR spectral evidence and confirmed by comparing with published data, as well as co-TLC in case of stigmasterol and lupeol. This is the first report of lup-20(29)-ene-3β,23-diol from this plant.
