“…A novel umbelliferone derivative, designated as cleosandrin, has been isolated from the ethanol extract of the seeds (Ramchandran, 1979). The seeds are also reported to contain cleomiscosin A, a coumarino-lignoid (Ray et al, 1980); cleomiscosin B (Ray et al, 1982); and cleomiscosin C (Ray et al, 1985) and its regioisomer cleomiscosin D, a minor coumarino-lignan (Kumar et al, 1988). Chattopadhyay et al (2007) have developed a simple, accurate, and reproducible reverse-phase high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method for identification and quantification of two isomeric coumarino-lignoids, cleomiscosin A and B, in different extracts of the seeds using photodiode array detection at 326 nm.…”
