Isolation, characterization and biological activity of a flavone from seeds of the traditional Sudanese medicinal tree (Acacia nilotica)


Author(s): Nosaiba K Hamed, Fath Elrahman Ahmed, Basheer Saeed and Abass Babiker

Abstract: Flavonoids are secondary metabolites compounds produced by plants which are found in a glycone or glycoside which attached to a sugar molecule, have basic structure consisting of a C6-C3-C6 skeleton. Acacia nilotica is medicinal plant is used to treat some diseases such as cancer tumors, tuberculosis, smallpox, diabetes, cough, diarrhea, dysentery and leprosy. The seeds powder of Acacia nilotica were extracted by 95% ethanol flowed by TLC chromatography in developing solvent BAW (5:2:6; v: v: v) to give a product which was flowed by IR, UV, MS, NMR to identify compound 1.
