PHYTOCHEMICAL SCREENING, EXTRACTION AND ISOLATION OF NEW COMPOUND FROM THE SANSEVIERIA ROXBURGHIANA LEAF EXTRACT Authors: R. Shanmugapriya And D. Viji Saral Elezabeth*
ABSTRACT
Different solvent soluble fractions of Sansevieria roxburghiana (Agavaceae) leaves
were tested for preliminary phytochemical analysis and antibacterial exploration against
clinically significant bacterial strains in this study. The existence of different primary and
secondary plant metabolites such as alkaloids, flavonoids, saponins, steroids, terpenoids,
tannins, Resin, carbohydrate, and phenols was confirmed by qualitative analysis of the
selected portions. Using column chromatography, the novel 2-(4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl)-
5-methoxy-4H-furo[2,3-h] chromen-4-one was extracted from the methanol extract. HNMR,
CNMR, LC/Ms, and IR analyses were used to confirm the structure of the molecule.
