Isolation, purification and characterisation of 2, 7, (14), 10 bisabolatriene- 1,9,12 triol, a bisabolene type sesquiterpene isolated from Curcuma longa L.

摘要

Several bisabolene types sesquiterpenes have been isolated, identified and reported from the genus Curcuma. This particular compound 2, 7, (14), 10 bisabolatriene-1,9,12 triol was reported by Huneck et al., 1986; Uehara et al., 1990 from Curcumaxanthorrhiza. So far as literature survey reveals our work is the first report of presence of 2, 7, (14), 10 bisabolatriene- 1,9,12 triol in Curcuma longa L. The compound was isolated, purified and chemically characterized by various standard spectroscopic methods. The acetylated derivative of the compound was also studied and analyzed spectroscopically.
