Abstract
Dysoxyllum binectariferum is an important medicinal plant known for various biological activities like anti-inflammatory, CNS depressants, contraceptive, analgesic, immunomodulatory, antimalarial, antifeedant, leishmanicidal and antiviral. It is a rich source of rohitukine, a basic skeleton of flavopiridol. Phytochemical investigation of chloroform extracts of Dysoxyllum binectariferum leaves, lead to the isolation of beddomeilactone (1) and two new cycloartane type triterpenoids beddomeilactol (2) and binectarilactone-A (3) with modified A ring. Compounds were assessed for their in-vitro α-glucosidase inhibitory activity. Compound 1 was found to be most potent, showing IC50 of 17.99 ± 0.26 µg/ml which is comparable to the positive control acarbose.
