Anethum sowa Roxb., (a well-known herb in folk medicine, has a greater medicinal significance due to its diversified activities such as antioxidant, antimicrobial and antispasmodic activity. Very few bioactive compounds have been reported from this species. Our study focused on the isolation, structure elucidation and bioactivity assay of the compounds. In the present work, 6-hydroxy-1, 3-dimethoxy-7-methyl-xanthen-9-one (AS-1) from dichloromethane extract and scopoletin (AS-2), 1, 3, 4-trimethoxy-xanthen-9-one (AS-3), graveolone (AS-4) from ethyl acetate extract of stem of A. sowa were isolated from the stem as well as the plant for the first time. All the characterizations and chemical structures of the compounds were determined by extensive modern spectroscopic techniques such as ultraviolet (UV), infrared (IR), mass, Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectrophotometer. Moreover, the cytotoxic, antimicrobial and antioxidant activity of AS-2, AS-3 and AS-4 were assessed. AS-2 exhibited significant activity against Salmonella typhi while mild antifungal activity against Aspergillus niger. Furthermore AS-3 revealed significant antifungal activity against Sacharomyces cerevacae as well as antibacterial activity against Salmonella typhi. Besides AS-4 exhibited moderate antibacterial activity against Bacillus megaterium. In addition AS-2, AS-3 and AS-4 presented mild cytotoxic with respect to positive control (Vincristine sulphate) while AS-3 exhibited moderate antioxidant activity as compared to positive control (Ascorbic acid).

“…Tetradecanoic acid or myristic acid is a long-chain saturated fatty acid mostly found in milk and had antifungal, antioxidant, nematicide properties (Mujeeb et al 2014). n-Hexadecanoic acid or palmitic acid is the most widespread saturated fatty acid in plants, animals as well as in microorganisms (Ferdosi et al 2021. It exhibited considerable cytotoxicity against human colorectal carcinoma cells (Ravi and Krishman 2017).…”

The composition of essential oil of marigold (Tagetes erecta L.) flowers was investigated. The oil was analyzed by GC-MS for identification of various components. Among these, 3-cyclohexene-1-methanol, α, α,4-trimethyl-, acetate was the most abundant compound (31.67%) followed by phenol, 2,4-bis (1,1- dimethylethyl)- (14.35%) and eucalyptol (14.27%). Other compounds included dodecanoic acid (5.97%), tetradecanoic acid (5.58%), octadecane (4.93%), propanoic acid, 2-bromo-2-methyl-, ethyl ester (5.43%), cyclohexanol, 1-methyl-4-(1-methylethanyl)-, acetate (5.33), n-hexadecanoic acid (4.70), p-menth-1-en-8-ol (4.20%) and thymol (3.57%).

“…[75] Additionally, GC-MS analysis of the ethyl acetate fraction of Cassia fistula flowers revealed 1.71 % of 2,2-dimethoxybutane. [76] The presence of this compound in A. coriphora, at an approximate rate of 22 %, may be a result of a chemical adaptation for orchids to protect themselves. Another main compound detected in our study, 2,5,6-trimethyldecane (7.31 %), is a compound that has not been previously identified in orchid samples.…”

This study aims to investigate the functional groups and phytochemical profile of Anacamptis coriophora seeds, tubers, and flowers. Symbiotic seedlings produced using the ex vitro method were transferred to their natural habitat and grown to analyze the functional groups and phytochemical profiles of tubers and flowers. The life cycles of the transferred seedlings were monitored, and tubers and flowers were harvested for analysis. ATR‐FTIR spectroscopy revealed the presence of functional groups such as polysaccharides, lignin, and proteins in both tubers and flowers. Differences in spectral frequencies between first‐year and second‐year tubers were observed. Fatty acid analysis identified 30 different compounds in seeds, flowers, and tubers, with linoleic acid being the most abundant (27% in seeds, 33% in tubers), and palmitic acid present in flowers (24%). GC‐MS analysis of ethanol extracts from these components highlighted the presence of 32 compounds, including hydroxyacetic acid, hydrazide, cytidine (Z)‐7‐hexadecenal, 2,2‐dimethoxyethane, 2,5,6‐trimethyldecane, and butanamide, 4‐amino‐N‐hydroxy. A. coriophora's tubers, flowers, and seeds may contain active metabolites with therapeutic potential. These results are valuable for the commercial cultivation of the plant.
