Abstract
AbstractVernolic acid represents 22.3% of the constituent fatty acids of the speed oil of an additional hitherto unexamined species of Bignoniaceae Kigelia pinnata. Its identification is based on comparative informations from thin‐layer chromatography, infrared analysis, gas liquid chromatography and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy with that of reference sample of Vernonia anthelmintica seed oil. The other fatty acids in this oil are: 14:0 (0.4), 16:0 (25.4), 18:0(0.9), 18:1 (8.9) and 18:2 (42.0%). K. pinnata is the first species of Bignoniaceae to be reported to contain vernolic acid in moderate amount.
