ANTIOXIDANT AND ANTlMICROBIAL ACTIVITIES OF FERULIC ACID ESTERS FROM Ochrosia Oppositifolia
Main Article Content
Abstract
Two ferulic acid esters namely (E)-methyl 3-(4’-hydroxy-3’,5’ dimethoxyphenyl) acrylate1 and (E)-methyl 18-((E)-3-(4’-hydroxy-3’methoxyphenyl)acryloyloxy)octadec-3-enoate ) 2, were isolated from Ochrosia oppositifolia. The compound 1 ,and 2 and the crude methanol and hexane extracts of Ochrosia oppositifolia showed a moderate in vitro antioxidant and antimicrobial activity.
