The present invention relates to a process for preparing a diphyllin glycoside, Cleistanthin, more particularly Cleistanthin A.
Diphyllin belongs to the family of lignans. Diphyllin is a phenolic lignan lactone. The lignans are a group of chemical compounds found in plants, particularly in flax seed. Lignans are one of the major classes of phytoestrogens, which are estrogen-like chemicals and also act as antioxidants. Diphyllin exists in the glycosylated form. Cleistanthin is an example of a glycosylated diphyllin.
The structure of Cleistanthin A is as shown below:
The glycosylated forms of lignan have been identified for a wide variety of activities.
They have been associated with cytotoxic effects as well as antitumor activity and anti-inflammatory effects.
The conventional process for the isolation of Cleistanthin A from cleistanthus collinus comprises the steps of treating the dried leaves of cleistanthus collinus with petroleum ether to obtain a defatted powder. The defatted powder is extracted with acetone to form a gummy mass, which on further treatment with benzene and chloroform gives a black residue. The spots are obtained on TLC plates, which on chromatogram with heptanes, chloroform and methanol gives Cleistanthin A in the form of blue fluorescent spots. Cleistanthin A is re-crystallized with acetone.
