Bioassay-guided isolation and partial characterization of an antisickling compound from Enantia chlorantha

Abstract

An anti-sickling compound, isolated from an ethanol extract of Enanthia Chlorantha, was partially characterized and probably identified to be Co-enzyme Q10 based on IR, 1Hâ�?�? and 13Câ�?�?NMR spectroscopy in addition to its antioxidant property and soluble in dilute acid and base.
