Published: March 2013

Phytochemical investigations of a MeOH extract obtained from the heartwoods of the Litsea glutinosa (Lauraceae) led to the isolation and characterization of four new butenolides, (3R,4S,5S)-2-hexadecyl-3-hydroxy-4-methylbutanolide 1, litsealactone C (2), and litsealactone D (4), litsealactone G (5), and a new benzoic acid derivative named eusmoside C (3). The structures of these compounds were elucidated on the basis of spectral studies.

Background: The Ag-NPs by green synthesis has a notable interest because of their eco-friendliness, economic views, feasibility, and applications in a wide range. Herein, native plants of Jharkhand (Polygonum plebeium, Litsea glutinosa, and Vangueria spinosus) were selected for the current work of Ag-NP synthesis and further antibacterial activity. Green synthesis was performed for Ag-NPs using Silver nitrate solution as precursor and the dried leaf extract performs as a reductant and stabilizer here.
