Invasive Acacia nilotica A Problematic Weed is a Source of Potent Methyl Gallate

Manisha Sharma ^[2] | Ashok Kumar Gupta | Alok Mukherji

Abstract: Acacia nilotica the invasive weed is a rich source of highly potent Methyl gallate an alkyl ester of gallic acid the alleochemical of most bark of the plants. Methyl gallate was isolated and purified through an open column chromatography. Analytical thin layer chromatography (TLC) was used to monitor the separation of the compound. The structural details of the isolated expected compound methyl gallate was determined by spectral analysis FTIR, UV, NMR and ES-MS.

Keywords: Acacia nilotica, methyl gallate, Isolation and spectral analysis
