Abstract
The present work investigates the phytochemical study and the antibacterial and antioxidant activities of Kigelia africana (Lam.) Benth. Column chromatography separation on silica gel of fractions led to the isolation of a new limonoid derivative named digsecokigelianolide (1), as well as nine known compounds (2-10). The structures of the isolated compounds were determined by comprehensive spectroscopic analysis, including 1 & 2D NMR, IR, UV, mass spectrometry and comparison with previous reported data. Compound 1 showed moderate antiradical activity (IC50 = 181.12 µg/mL) against ABST•+ radical compared to BHT (159.48 µg/mL) used as standard, and a good antibacterial activity against Salmonella typhi (MIC: 22.0 mm), Escherichia coli (MIC: 15.0 mm) and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (MIC: 20 mm) at the concentration of 25 mg/mL. Compound 9 and 10 showed good antiradical (which ranges from 56.39 to 61.16% of inhibition) and antibacterial (which ranges from 12 to 20 mm of inhibition zone) activities.
期刊介绍:
The aim of Natural Product Research is to publish important contributions in the field of natural product chemistry. The journal covers all aspects of research in the chemistry and biochemistry of naturally occurring compounds.
The communications include coverage of work on natural substances of land and sea and of plants, microbes and animals. Discussions of structure elucidation, synthesis and experimental biosynthesis of natural products as well as developments of methods in these areas are welcomed in the journal. Finally, research papers in fields on the chemistry-biology boundary, eg. fermentation chemistry, plant tissue culture investigations etc., are accepted into the journal.
Natural Product Research issues will be subtitled either ""Part A - Synthesis and Structure"" or ""Part B - Bioactive Natural Products"". for details on this , see the forthcoming articles section.
All manuscript submissions are subject to initial appraisal by the Editor, and, if found suitable for further consideration, to peer review by independent, anonymous expert referees. All peer review is single blind and submission is online via ScholarOne Manuscripts.
