Extraction, purification and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) assignment of garcinoic acid from Garcinia kola (bitter kola) fruit
African Journal of Pure and Applied Chemistry(2018)
Abstract
Continuous extraction of bitter kola nuts, followed by liquid-liquid extraction and flash column chromatography leads to the isolation of garcinoic acid (-tocotrienoloic acid), as the main lipophilic component in a 0.8% yield of the initial dry weight.This compound, an oxidised member of the vitamin E family, was structurally characterised using nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy.
