NMR Assignment and Antimicrobial/Antioxidant Activities of 1${\beta}$-Hydroxyeuscaphic acid from the Seeds of Butyrospermum parkii

  • Published : 2009.06.30

Abstract

Phytochemical investigation of the EtOAc and n-BuOH fractions obtained from the crude methanol extract of the seeds of Butyrospermum parkii led to the isolation of seven compounds including 1${\beta}$,2${\alpha}$,3${\alpha}$-trihydroxyurs-12-en-28-oic acid (1${\beta}$-hydroxyeuscaphic acid) which full NMR assignment is herein reported for the first time. The above extract, fractions and some of the isolated compounds were screened for antimicrobial and antioxidant activities; 1${\beta}$-hydroxyeuscaphic acid was the more potent.
