Abstract
The goal of preparative chromatography is to isolate suitable amounts of compound(s) at the required purity in the most cost-effective way. This study analyses the power of High-performance thin-layer chromatography (HPTLC) guided preparative flash chromatography to separate and isolate bioactive compounds from an olive flower extract for their further characterisation via spectroscopy. The structure and purity of isolated bioactive compounds were assessed using Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. Flash chromatography of the olive flower extract successfully isolated pure oleanolic and maslinic acids. Moreover, the flash chromatography of the extract allowed isolation and phytochemical analysis of the most lipophilic fraction of the extract, which was found to contain n-eicosane and n-(Z)-eicos-5-ene, that has not been isolated previously with preparative TLC.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Chromatography A provides a forum for the publication of original research and critical reviews on all aspects of fundamental and applied separation science. The scope of the journal includes chromatography and related techniques, electromigration techniques (e.g. electrophoresis, electrochromatography), hyphenated and other multi-dimensional techniques, sample preparation, and detection methods such as mass spectrometry. Contributions consist mainly of research papers dealing with the theory of separation methods, instrumental developments and analytical and preparative applications of general interest.
