Alkaloids from Pandanus amaryllifolius and Pandanus tectorius from Vietnam and Their Anti-inflammatory Properties

Abstract

Phytochemical investigation of the alkaloid composition in Pandanus amaryllifolius Roxb. and Pandanus tectorius Parkinson was carried out. Nine pandane alkaloids were isolated and determined. The alkaloids pandamarilactonine B, N-acetylnorpandamarilactonine A and pandamarilactonine G were found for the first time in P. tectorius. The total alkaloid mixtures and alkaloid fractions of the species were evaluated for their anti-inflammatory activity using in vitro experimental models.
