Isolasi dan Identifikasi Sterol dari Ekstrak n-heksana Daun Meniran Hijau Phyllanthus niruri L. (Euphorbiaceae)
Abstract: One of
the secondary metabolite,
namely a sterol
had been iosolated
from the n-hexane
extract of Phyllanthus niruri L
leaves. This compound was obtained by isolation that consist of extaction,
fractionation, purification, and identification. The
identification covers the
melting point test,
thin layer chromatography and Liebermann-Burchard test.
The research results show that the compound is white needle crystal with the malting point
120-122⁰C and positive
with Lieberman-Burchard reagens
that give blue-green
coulor. This compound have not
yet been established, because it must be evaluated by spectroscopy.methods.
