Abstract
The main objective of this· study is to investigate the phytochemistry of the yellow part of the leaves of Pandanus tectorius "Sanderi". This project involved the fractionation and isolation of compounds from the crude extract. Twelve fractions were obtained and analyzed by Thin Layer Chromatography (TLC). The compounds were detected using spray reagents. In order to isolate the compounds, repetitive fractionation was performed on selected samples by using column chromatography. Preparative TLC was also carried out, resulting two purified samples from fraction A and B. Finally, the pure compound was prepared for Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy for structural identification. Unfortunately, no NMR data was obtained. In conclusion, the objective of this project was achieved. Future analysis will include complete elucidation of the pure Pandanus constituents.
