Vijayaraj Chellaiyan | Senguttuvan Swaminathan

Abstract: Ipomoea sepiaria (Convolvulaceae) is a source of the classical Ayurvedic medicinal plant Lakshmana. In folklore practice this herb is known as a good antidote to arsenic poisoning, uterine tonic, aphrodisiac and anti-ulcer drug. The present investigation of isolation of 3-methoxy quercetin-3-O-rutinoside was obtained from the flowers of Ipomoea sepiaria. Moreover, the absence of toxicity of plant extracts and the isolation of active compounds are important to propose these plants as alternative approaches to resistance management and significant inhibitory effect on the oedema formation. The structure was established based on analysis of HPLC, UV, IR, 1H NMR and 13C NMR spectroscopy methods.
