Abstract
Murraya koenigii leaves are widely used as a spice and also have several biological activities. The major active constituents are carbazole alkaloids. Quantitation by HPLC or HPTLC requires pure marker compounds, whereas nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy can be used as a quantitative technique without the requirement of a pure marker compound. An alkaloid-rich fraction was prepared from the leaves and a validated qNMR method was developed for the quantitation of nine carbazole alkaloids, namely mahanimbine, girinimbine, koenimbine, koenine, kurrayam, mukonicine, isomahanimbine, euchristine B and bismahanine. One of the major compounds, koenimbine, was isolated and quantified by HPTLC to compare the results. The results obtained by qNMR were compared with the reported yields of these compounds.
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.
